...be no water in the emergency drain line when performing tank maintenance, it just seems strange not to have a shutoff valve on a drain line.
#2) Should I use 3/4" or 1" PVC for the return line from the Vectra S1 back to the tank? It _seems_ like 1" pipe is overkill for the Vectra S1?

I tried this new recipe in my tank, but I have reverted to using sodium bicarb (Recipe #2) because the pH went too high with my alk demand (~4dKH/day in a 90-gallon). The high pH led to more precipitation and the Alkatronic detected drops in alk and added sodium bicarb buffer to compensate -...

Here's what you need for the Tunze Stream pumps:
Tunze 1 cable (For pump 1)
Tunze 2 cable (For pump 2)
YL2-5 (This 16ft long splitter allows you to connect both Tunze pumps so 1 cable runs down to the P4)
How they are connected
The Tunze cables are each connected to...

Mine continue to improve and is doing better. The mantel of the newer Gigas (Gigas #2) extended past the shell in all part this AM. Not as much as the on that was in my tank 1 week longer (Gigas #1) but is getting there. Here are pictures of both of them.
