Capt Billy's 300g Stony Reef

Thanks!

I got my Avast Marine Vibe 2.5L reactor yesterday. It was advertised to have a capacity of 2.5L of zeolites. The instructions state the media may not be higher than 2" below the lid of the reactor. Based upon that, it won't even hold two 1L bags of zeolite stones. I am waiting to hear back from avast, I obviously need the 4.0L capacity reactor to properly hold the 2.5L of zeolites needed by my system. Hopefully Avast will be rapid in facilitating this exchange as it's preventing me from starting zeovit.

Taking off the canopy always becomes much more than planned. Just needed to install a fish safety net to keep jumpers in the back, but that turned into cleaning all the radions fans, grills and lenses, replacing a fan and wiping everything down. Hope it doesn't need to come off for another year, because it's big, heavy, expensive, and sketchy to lift on and off the tank which sits on a 40" tall stand.
