skimmer works great ..chamber is 8.5 x 20in , the main pump is dc 8000 with needle wheel and mesh mod. It runs 100% I have slowed it down but seems to work best at 100% , The recirc pump is dc 12000 at 100% with needle wheel. the recirc pump and becket made a huge gain in skimmate.

I realy like the par meter ..I have been playing with timers and ramps trying to smooth out some of the dips and peaks..I also ordered new reflectors for my t5s so im going to wait until there installed to fine tune the par curve.. Im trying to simulate the natural bell curve the sun produces ..Im also going to run each set of lights to see how they look separate from the system. I now understand why a par meter is a great tool for setting up your leds.

Well I'm back , bad news my 75 and 90 tanks broke and I was forced into cramming everything into the big tank, it was a blood bath what coral the fish didn't eat the shock and ect. Did.. I finally caught the subject fish removed lots of the excess rock, we seem to be back on track

The good news is that I only have one tank now, I took all the extra equipment from both tanks and made life a lot easier...

If you aren't a paying Photobucket user, nobody will be seeing your photos unless you move them to a new photo hosting site and re upload them or start paying Photobucket a lot of money..

Had fire in my stand last night, I was adding new magnetic rocks I made , I spilled some water alot and it got power adapter for a pump wet and boom, a real deal fire!! It was under a wooden shelf in the stand and I couldn't get to it very quik, I had to start ripping away to get to the fire, mu wife was there lucky enough the pin to the fire extinguisher was hard to pull so I went to wall and started pull power to everything, I had a salt bucket near so I dipped it into the tank and drowned the fire out with tank water, what a @@@@ mess..

Since photobucket sucks, heres a few pics of what the equipment looks like now, appears to be as good time as any to catch up with some pics.

The long short tank will be a algae scrubber and a place for my experiments..
