My tank has been running very well now for a couple of days, I haven't needed to touch anything (except for small refills of my RO/DI container) ! So I'm pretty happy about that, because on my previous tank, it was constant maintenance headache ! Now, with my Profilux, everything is taken care of
Only problem I have been having, is maintaining correctly the temperature of my tank. My nominal value would be 78-80F. But so far, my tank has been running from 82F (during the night) to up to 84-85F during the day. Also, since my Profilux automatically shutdown the MH if the temperature get's too high, well my Metal Halides haven't been on too much lately.
So to fix that problem, I've managed to purchase from "eBay"
