ECO-Aqualizer, My Review, Locked and Loaded...

[glow=Navy, 3, 90%]Jakets,

I agree with CMKll. Go to the link he gave you and see if you find something that touches on what you are talking about.

If not, come back here. Maybe the 3 of us can figure it out.[/glow]

It looks as though you can put it anywhere in your system as long as you can accomidate the flow rate.
so the answer is YES
(you'd think someone who spend most for his day reading and writing tech documents could ask a simple question, Sorry for the confusion)

Great link thanks guys

Anytime Jakets,,,
To help each other is the greatest Reward there is,,,
Anytime, hehe...

UpDate, 4/25/03, 7 days later,,,
I use Salifert Kits to take my test's, here are my readings,,,
[glow=red, 2, 300]PH..............8.1
Salinity........1.025
Calcium........440ppm
Alkalinity......10.2dkh
Magnesium...1440ppm
Nitrates.......10ppm
Temp...........79  
Last Water Change, 4/02, 10gal. [/glow]

Last weeks readings,,,
[glow=red, 2, 300]PH..............8.1
Salinity........1.025
Calcium........450ppm
Alkalinity......10.2dkh
Magnesium...1440ppm
Nitrates.......10ppm
Temp...........79  
Last Water Change, 4/02, 10gal. [/glow]

As you can see, there was a 10ppm drop in Cal., all other readings are the same with no dosing of additives in 7 days, interesting, I do believe one of the benefits are stabilization with less dosing of additives, which means, and you know, saving some jingle, hehe...

Visual Observations,,,
Less Cyano in my Eco-System,,,
Water is Crystal clear, no yellowing, been 23 days with no water change, jingle saver, hehe,,,
Fish eat like no tomorrow at feeding time,,,
Fish are much more colorfull, definite visual observation,,,
All inverts, corals and soft corals seem more colorfull then 7 days ago and those Orange Ricordia Shrooms are more Orange then after first reporting about them...

Still Happy as pig in you know what, so far, I will not add any additives till I see a change in my readings,,,
My tank looks good and healthy at this writing, more to follow and I will try to get some pics this weekend...
Stay tuned....

 

Great info. Steve, I can't wait o have a Eco Aqualizer and Ecosystem with miracle mud on my next setup!

Keep us posted!!

[glow=red, 2, 300]I took some pics. for some obvious observations using the Eco-Aqualizer for 8 days,,,
This pic. of my smaller Brain shows, if you take a good look the pic is a bad one, that it's feelers are out during lights on, usually they come out at night, hmmm interesting.[/glow]

[glow=red, 2, 300]Here is a Pic of my Orange Ricordia that has looked more orange then 8 days ago...[/glow]


[glow=red, 2, 300]A pic. of my BTA, tenticles have doubled in length, by the way, these pics. were taken without a flash, notice the Gold in my clown, that is an obvious sign of the color enhancement...[/glow]


[glow=red, 2, 300]Well, that's all for now, better pics. to come, there is a difference so far using the Eco-Aqualizer, but they say the best is yet to come,,,
Reporting to you from Sunny Florida on a nasty rainy day,,,
I'll be back, hehe....[/glow]

 

This is the 3 week update using the Eco-Aqualizer. I will list each week below so you don't have to flip back and forth,,,

[glow=red, 2, 300]PH..............8.1
Salinity........1.025
Calcium........410ppm
Alkalinity......10.2dkh
Magnesium...1410ppm
Nitrates.......5ppm
Temp...........79
Last Water Change, 4/02, 10gal. [/glow]

As you can see from my first test,,,
Cal. dropped 40ppm
Mag. dropped 30ppm
Nitrate dropped 5ppm

I have not added Additives since 4/05, I will start tonight but just one dose for Cal. and Alk, to see if it maintains this last reading until next week. I have gone 18 days without adding so all readings would be where they are now, not bad on the pocketbook, huh...

As far as Visual Observations,,,
Friggen tank looks GREAT, all critters are colorfull, extended, eating well and fish are getting along, not chasing each other. Cyano in my Eco-System is almost gone, Thank God, I can put the Turkey Baster away.

All in All, happy with what I see and test results. I will give it till the end of May for my Seal of Approval.
Tank you for Listening, hehe...

 

Great stuff. Very informative and a great empiracle set of data! Thanks Steve.

I agree my two tanks are looking sharp to after adding the eco aqualizer. You guys should stay the hell away from reefcentral. They think they know it all. Both tanks are cystal clear and everyone is happy.
