Looking good redox. The mangroves seem happy.

 

[redox]

thanks nugz. I guess the key is neglect. I havent done a thing for them:lol:

 

[nUgZ]

Sometimes that IS the best thing.

Now that ive read the whole thread,im really ready to start. My only problem is getting a large enough protein skimmer down here. Really looks great redox.

 

[redox]

thanks jimito. With all that retirerment time on your hands why not try a diy skimmer? Do a search here on RC and you will find multiple skimmer build threads

Jimito,
Look in Calfo's BOCP for the schematics on the Nilsen PS. This is what I am using in my GH on 300gal systems & they will pull a 5 gal bucket of skimate in 2 weeks if I crank em up. Use a Corolife Super luft air pump per 2 skimmers & yer set. I thimk my cost per skimmer was like $80.00 a unit including air pump.

Redox,
Looking good as ever my brother!! Have the Bluefins showed up yet down there?

Hey joshua The bluefin are a sore subject down here. The warmer than normal waters have kept the bluefins from showing up. Its probably a good thing as they need lots of time to regrow their population. They are totally wiped out by the european fisherman . You just dont see the really big ones anymore. Its really sad to see what humans are doing to our oceans an its inhabitants

This acro has not been bothered by the grid problem

I recently changed my overspill guard

Hi redox, in this pic we don't see any algae at all. Did you noticed diato? I think it is normal in the beginning. I had them too. Post more pics.

Cold water into an r.o. is not very efficient,everything is sweating from the water feed temperature that is colder than normal
