dmbedard , your water change barrel

[reefrubble]

Diane , did you get your water change barrel set up yet ? Ted

Yep. I'm mixing saltwater as I type. I'll post my experience with the water change system we engineered and made at the last ANCHOR meeting as soon as I get a minute to make the change.

We need to know. Did you have any problems with hocking it up?

Measurements are fine. Actually about 5-7 feet more than I needed, but better too much than not enough.

Lowes sold me 1/2" hose instead of 3/4" hose, so I still don't have proper connection, but have been making due with what I have.

Got the cutoff for ro/di, but when the barrel was full to the float switch, the water just leaked out.

Still needs fine tuning, obviously. The cutoff for ro/di came with a float valve, so I may try changing them out.

Sorry for not being there Saturday, the parade and kids went past noon.

Merry Christmas to all.
