My 2000 gallon softies tank..

[Spectre2006]

nice tank, based on the aquascape, maybe detritus is building up between rocks, since the rockscape seems to be lying on the outer rim of the tank.

 

[bastianbali]

nope, spectre, only 5% rocks are holding to the back of the tank. ^^

deep sand bed hides phosphates too... might need to take it off line and see what happens.

That is one mega system. I'm sorry, did you say your pool is your DSB? Holy DSB Batman!

 

[TheFishTeen]

Wow your system is bigger than I imagined it! Could we see your tank lighting?

 

[bastianbali]

1m2 my new ats setup. top closed, speed is enough to cover all the surface of the plastic net, got rock weight in the bottom to make it straight, drain 5cm above ground level. facing north and south. input from return pump, goes to second chamber after skimmer. need advised if there are any flaws on the design. thank you.

Looks great, but does it lift out somewhat easily for cleaning?

 

[bastianbali]

yes, it does, cause i do studying that it needs to be clean twice a month, thanks, friend.

I use Lanthanum Chloride to reduce phosphates, it takes very little to drop phosphate considerably, I use it weekly by dripping into a 100 micron sock until it clogs (overflows), which takes about 4-6 hrs, will drop phosphates from 1.5 to .5 in my 1400g system. Be very careful you don't drip to fast and drop phosphates too quickly as your LPS's will not be happy. Dilution I use is 200cc of LC per 5 gallons of RO/DI water. It's dripped via a peristaltic pump. In addition I run three skimmers and two algae turf scrubbers.

Should also mention that the filter sock is placed in a high flow area in the sump

Great Information, friend.. gonna study this lanthanum chloride ASAP ! :beer:

forgot to mention the best part, it's dirt cheap! It's used in swimming pools to lower phosphates and found at your local swimming pool store or online under several brands, a bottle lasts me 6-8 months

 

[bastianbali]

cool...!! make it easier to find it.. hahahahaa.. tks, Mr Elliot.

 

[Pharoh]

That is all.
