how’d it go for you guys? We’re expecting rain tomorrow and temps were above freezing finally today!

Not bad at all for me only a one hour outage. Hope the same for you!

A box came in today..... watched the geo 510 calcium reactor and geo 410 secondary chamber on eBay for a few days. Decided to make an offer, first offer was immediately rejected. Second offer was accepted! No time line for setting this up, maybe this year maybe never! Got a great deal on the pair!

Teated phosphates, nitrates and Alk today. Phosphates were blinking 200 on the Hanna phosphorous checker ‍. Tested high and low range nitrates and they are also CRAZY high.

Making more RODI water right now to start on some water changes.... really need to do an ICP test.

Looks great but check your assembly on the calcium reactor pump. You have it backwards.

Thanks for the input... literally! Haha I haven’t set it up, luckily! I’ll get it fixed, thanks again!!

Couple back to back large water changes. Hopefully this helps with my super high phosphates and nitrates. Basically a reset!

Large photo dump!

Two large water changes to hopefully help out with massive phosphate readings.... but are the readings accurate?!!!

Macro growing and finally “testing” the fro calcium reactor and chamber!

Shoutout to @murphys_aquatics for sending me the mini BRS reactor with phosguard and @Scurvy for sending the large BRS reactor! The mini has rowaphos and phosguard in it . The large has phosguard loaded in it. Need to get all of these phosphates gone!
