Nice work.
Thanks fin. The Chinese led light doesn’t have enough spread and 1/2 of the leds in it stopped working. It’s time for an upgrade. My PO4 battle continues for now at 0.18.That came out nice! Good job.
Here is what I ended up creating. I call it the cheato reactor triple threat! It consists of three gyre chambers that spin the cheato 24x7. The lighting runs from 5:00 PM to 9:00 AM the next morning.
Lighting consists of an LED light fixture pushing out 7100 lumens and using four long bulbs for even distribution. It uses a Sicce 780 gph pump and the water is directed using 3/4" PVC pipe. It isn't fancy really. The chambers are not even water tight as water can flow both over the top of the glass and under the glass as well. The three gyre chambers measure roughly 12" x 12" x 12" each.
Time will tell but I believe that this setup may keep PO4 <= 0.07ppm. That is the goal anyways.
Same here. I'll be sure to keep you up to date!I love this. Cannot wait to see the results.
I also quiet like chromis and how they school along together.A couple more pics taken this week.
A lot of folks like the way the chromis’ school together. I know that I do. Interestingly enough, when I added the chromis, they made the tank so active that all the other fish seemed to stop trying to claim a territory. The powder blue and the largest anthias in particular no longer try to be a as much or a boss. The chromis just do their thing and they are fast enough that no one can ever really bother them.
I've also started with 7 and now down the 6. Funny how the smallest of the small is still alive I was for sure he would be the first to go.I also quiet like chromis and how they school along together.
Mine are over 2 years old now and have grown significantly and are beautiful looking fish now. I started with 7 I think originally and the 5 I have now have been 5 for a long time so I assume they have established their hierarchy now.
Great pictures as well by the way!
