That is cool, I guess Marc is gonna have to sell pumps separate now for Kalk systems. Is that pump held in position by anything?
if you look closely there is a zip tie one on each side. these pumps have very lil vibration and low noise. I like them a lot for this big of a reactor and system. yes it's ghetto but I trust my acrylic guys work and there where very lil options. I am gettin the itch to rip it all out and clean the sump and rat nest of wires. really bugging me!
Chris, that quite the Frankenstein idea you went with, but boy did it work. I can't believe your pH was as low as you typed. How did anything survive? Can we see a full tank shot of the reef?
How much kalk powder are you going through?
ill take out the DSLR tonight and get a nice FTS, and yes it is very frankenstein but i really like how it worked out. @Michika.. i started out with about a 4 tbs the first week and have since added 2-3 a week. im very slowly tweaking amount as this is new to me. i go through 10 gallons of top every 4-5 days or so. forgot to mention the stir pump kicks on 6 times a day via my reefkeeper. also is ph goes above 8.3 i have an alarm that shuts off that ATO pump. working on a way to add a second pump to bypass when that happens and pump fresh water till ph drops, i know it can be done with reefkeeper just need another pump
