The Amazon price is for a set of 4 but Out Of Stock

I originally though that as well napa, but it's saying its a (4) inch ring not 4 filter socks

[HASHTAG]#broadfield[/HASHTAG] Thats one neat setup you have there! What did you do with auto-topup? Any plan or CA reactor or dosing setup in there somewhere?

I'm running a Puratek Auto Level Controller plumbed directly to my RO... absolutely a wonderful device! I have not hooked up my dosing stuff yet from my old tank. Since it's such a new setup, my calcium, magnesium and alkalinity are all in check from weekly water changes. Once the coral start to take over, I'll dose as necessary. I will be going with the Neptune DOS at that time though.

Ha that's right! My bad...usually I find everything cheaper on Amazon

 

[Broadfield]

I need to upgrade my flow...currently running 2 Jebao's WP-10. Any suggestions? Was thinking Vortech's just to keep it simple since I'm running 2 Radions and a Vectra. But yet do I go with 2 MP-10's or 1 MP-40...

What tank are you running again?

 

[luckyfin]

Wow, that is AWESOME!! Absolutely love that aquascape and how you customized the sump. Did you make that wood shelf thingy that holds your dosing reservoirs? Can you explain what you got going on there for the intake/filter sock area where the ATO I think usually is? Thanks and great job!

Dosing reservoirs are from Ikea. Posting closeups of the sump in a bit...

 

[luckyfin]

Need to work on organizing a bit.

Reefer 250

 

[Broadfield]

Reefer 250

As long as the MP10's couple on the thickness of the side glass, I would go with those over the MP40. I had a couple of the 10's on my old 36" tank and they were more than enough.

 

[Napa Reefer]

Just installed the BRS GFO & Carbon Reactor Deluxe

 

[Virtualbasil]

I have a dual reactor also, but instead of GFO I run purigen. Is it OK to run purigen in a reactor? I mean it's the same concept right?

 

[Robink]

Following. Considering one of these for an upgrade. Like that everything is already plumbed and dedicated.

 

[koifishy]

Following, thinking of getting the 130 for my first saltwater tank.

 

[Sabellafella]

So my stupid little push led light i had velcro onto the top of my sump cause i thought it would be too much to hang my kessil from there, fell inmytank over night and corroded leaving behind a completely brown rusty lookin tank, my filtersocks and skimmer are clogged with rusty brown film, lookin for advice. I kno regular batterys contain potassium hydroxide, maganese and iron but i inspected the light and looks to contain aluminum or steel, only copper in the batterys, any suggestions beside running gfo carbon and poly filter?

 

[mcmunn93]

Ow no sorry to hear that how's your corals

 

[Virtualbasil]

Probably had a nickel based battery which is no Bueno

[Sabellafella]

To be dead honest, 2 of my sps i had acually showed polyp extension witch i havnt seen since i transfwred them from my other tank lol
