Very cool with the CO2 meter integration. Can you tell us more about that?

What would you like to know. The Co2 meter puts out 0-5v which the ASM can accept via bnc (probe) cable spliced into the output of the meter. Then just play with the inputs to get it to match the Co2 readings. It’s been great so far. Nice to see how the PH changes as the Co2 raises.

So...I received my Xr30 pros yesterday and figured it would be fun to install them today. I seemed to have forgotten how well I ran my wires and how many wires actually go up the light rack.

I removed the AP700 and 360s. Installed all three Radions and programmed them to their AB+ LPS setting at 15% for now. I do miss the shimmer the Kessils provided.

Tomorrow I get to remove all the old bricks and wires. Then run new ones. Ugh!

It’s not actually screwed or connected to the steel stand. It’s just pressure fit and screwed to the wood on the base. The only thing screwed to the frame is the trim on top and bottom.

I received my Co2 scrubber and hooked it up and left it on my sump to test it out. Think I’ve got it dialed in well now but no place to mount it.

When I installed my UV it was just thrown on like the scrubber was and I always wanted to fix the install. So....I ordered some hard plumbing and the rest will be here next week. Decided I better find a better place to put it. Realizing why I put it where I did. It’s too big to fit anywhere. Since I took my Sulfur denitrator off line and sold it I found a new location for the UV. Plumbing it should be fun.

Two quick self tappers and the scrubber is installed. Looks better now my OCD was starting to drive me nuts. Now I found more I need to clean up......grrrr

I came across a killer deal last night. A guy was selling his set up and I picked it up pretty cheap. Going to resell most of it to make my money back and then keep what I want.

So far I removed a EB8 from my tank and added a EB832. Tomorrow I’m changing my water station classic Apex to a 2016. I’ve already sold my Classic.

I also sold the Trident that came with the tank. That was fun and crazy. Sold a Mp 10 and kept one. Sold a reeflink, Auto feeder and few other things. I’ll be posting stuff on R2R soon.

This weekend I will get my UV hard plumbed. I bought a new used Cor15 to run my UV. The tank I bought came with a S1 which is what I wanted for my UV. Guess now I can try them both.

My house is starting to look like a Neptune warehouse!

ok, I don’t like the eb832

I knew this pump pulled a lot off the eb8 but never got to see how bad it was. Glad I had a EB4 laying around. Plugged that pump into socket three and we are good again. Nice to fix problems without more $$$

Redid my plumbing to the UV. removed the 1/2” plumbing and flow sensor. Used 3/4” and 1” sensor. Now I can see when the flow is over 250gph. Maybe next time I’ll read the instructions before doing things.

I also drilled a hole in my sump for the UV return. That was scary but worked out well. I found a place for my 1/2” flow meter. I added it to my chiller for my mixing station.

that is amazing! but what are the eco tech dry sides doing?

Resting. I took them off that side and need to remove some panels to get the wires out. I’m too lazy to do it right now. Plus if I need them they are ready to go! Lol
