i have an aluminum rod im going to use for a MJ mod. this rod will be in the MJ 1200 in the saltwater in my reef tank? is this ok or will the aluminum have any effects on my fish/inverts or corrode? if so ill get something else. thx for input
 
You will want to use Stainless at the least. Aluminum will erode rather quickly in the saltwater. In this situation, the protective oxide layer will be constantly "washed" away.
 
ok thx. sitting here i just found a fix for my problem so looks like the rod will not be used anyway.. but good to know about the aluminum for further reference. :)
