ESHOPPS Mariner 70 Build

[Slocke]

Not sure what a Six Stars filter is... Still don't know even after messing with it some.

It's like 5 stars, but for cheaters. The photos are seriously good, though, especially of the shroom.

 

[JoJosReef]

I also like the photobombing damsel.

Who do you think you are? 100 gallon reefer? Those photos should be in different threads not posts of that's the case!

However since when were you good at photography?!

He stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night. Now we're screwed for POTM.

That's never gonna happen. I mean the POTM. Holiday Inn Express will happen again for sure! How else will I get the courage to perform open heart surgery???

Mariner of the month and now this! Is there anything you can't do??

I need to clean the glass some...

Jeepers, you take some good pictures for an old guffer!

Alk is at 10.3... I think I must have found my "hold steady" dose. I should drop 6 mL more daily for a couple of days to get where I want to be OR leave it alone and do a couple of water changes to bring it where I want it to be.

Question for the masses:

Should I get the Minnow with 2 controllable or programmable dosing heads OR should I get the XS for the same 4 Sense Ports and a 4 head non Hydros doser... It'd still be app controlled, not as functional as the Minnow but 4 heads instead of 2. It only saves me like $10 that way but gains 2 dosing heads. I'm not positive I actually need the extra dosing heads though and I can always grab another Jebao later if the need arises I suppose...

Minnow sure sounds better...

 

[Nor'easter Reefer]

I agree. I like the minnow and would go with that. What's the point in a controller that you can make work when there's one that just works..

 

[Stang67]

Don't forget the blue cables to link up everything and a stopper at the end.

 

[Slocke]

I've never seen a minnow with two heads much less a controllable one

Yep! I got 3 controller cables from LiveAquaria with part of the store credit. Gonna add a Terminator to one of the orders.

You've obviously never looked in the right spot!

Gotta get off the trails and into the water!

Alk 8.5
Phos 0.61
NO3 7.5

Guess I'll drop the Phosphate 1 ml daily and check in 4 days.

Nitrates are doing swell.

I just started gfo as I had everything besides a pump sitting around. How do you control your phosphate levels?

 

[Mschmidt]

Controllable int the same app would be nice. You can probably have it automatically adjust too.

I add 5 mL daily...

Oh I don't want to do that :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:
