I couldn't find my build thread but I wanted to share an update on this bad boy. It's been running on the tank since day one and right at the end of the cycle it started to build up algae. It took off in a matter of 2 weeks and is now overgrown. So far very cool and seems to be working.

That's nice bud! Did you say you have a build thread? I️ would like to know what lights you're running in the ATS

Those are the most expensive lights I've ever heard of being used for an algae turf scrubber!
Hahahha I read that wrong. The algae scrubber uses red leds, 4 strips with about 6 to 8 leds per strip.

Can't find the build thread. I️ found many red led strips. Don't want to buy the wrong ones. Also, can you send a photo of the enclosure?

This was something I bought I didn't make it. You can find them on eBay.

Lol yeah the price almost made me skip it. I was excited to do some natural filtration.

Hey every time my frag tank looks like krap my display is rocking. They are plumbed together and it is a balancing act. I've thought about purchasing one of those Clear Water designs. I like that setup.
