Here are a couple of photos. Had to create a picasa account real quick. No additives accept some alkalinity buffer and the tank looked like that...
Not yet it is just a FOWLR and did not think I really needed one. The tank has been up and running for a month. Just added a few fish, cheap ones. Is...
Ok, I did as you suggested and turned off the pump and let the tank sit for about 5mins. All the stuff is still there. It's some sort of suspended...
No don't have a sand sifter yet. Tank just recently cycled.
I have searched many threads and was wondering if I could get some suggestions specific to me. I have a huge microbubble problem in a new 90gal tank....
Thanks everyone I think I will replace everything. Is there a formula for figuring gph from hole size? The drain is larger than the return. Return is...
Tank is drilled with a built in overflow. That's why I don't know the gph rating on it. Tank has no name or info on it at all. I don't like the way...
I was already thinking of using new pipes. These are pretty nasty. Like I said I don't have any experience with plumbing a system but I'm sure I can...
Hello everyone, I just purchased a used 90gal tank. It has been sitting for quite some time. Does anyone know if it would be safe to reuse the pvc...
APC- I live in ATL and there are some great stores here. Not sure where you live but there is one in Buckhead (kindof expensive) and another one on...
I have no doubts about the build itself, it's the epoxy part and sealing of the tank i'm a little worried about. I think I've already asked you this...
Duly noted. It's ashame you live so far away from me. I noticed on your profile that you are out of work. I would have paid you to come over and help...
My tank will be 36" high. I may just add like an adjustable tension rod at the top for added insurance and that won't block any light to speak of....
I'm not sure I understand how that keeps your tank from expanding front to back?
That is an excellent solution, I will do that. probably would only need to put liquid nails to hold them in place? Jason, what to you use as a top...
Sorry for not being more specific, but I meant after. I still think in my specific case I won't need the extra reinforcement. Lots of other people...
I probably didn't mention that this will be a FOLR system not a reef. I'm done with reefs. Turnover at 600gph x2 would be 1200gph wich is more than...
Right I'm sure it is. That's why I said I was using a 1" bulkhead. I don't need any more flow than that.
Got it Thx. Looks like you used fiberglass on top of your mitered braces as well? How many coats of resin do you apply 3-4? Do you also go over all...
Are you actually using a little sqeegie when you do that? I have never done any fiberglass work. What do you mean by wetting it out? I have a...
