Doesn't it though ...... OUCH!!!

Im sorry if you have already covered this question as i have not made it past pg 3. Can you detail how you sealed the acrylic to the concrete.

 

[Pigpen]

Let me see if I have any pictures of that , its not done how everyone thinks thou .

 

[Bayinaung]

WOW. first time I ventured into this part of R2R. Been missing out on this!

New automatic calcium reactor almost finished .

 

[RamsReef]

What is an automatic reactor?

 

[Pigpen]

just what you think . it controls the co2 automatically so you dont have too . we go a bit further on our system and monitor or alk every hour and the controller then adjust the ca reactor to keep the alk in the setpoint .

 

[RamsReef]

Nah that is not what I was thinking, I was thinking of one where you empty a bag of media into a hopper and it has level sensors to keep it topped up and alert you when it needs a refill.

What you described is what I would call standard haha ;P

 

[RamsReef]

Oh and I love your work and photos, thank you.

 

[Pigpen]

I could make you one that refills automatically . ha .

 

[RamsReef]

So can I

@Pigpen I just talked to someone about this thread that says they know you lol.

 

[DaveMorris]

The pic of you standing in your future skimmer cup cracks me up. That's something that literally nobody can say they could do!

 

[Pigpen]

new fully automatic calcium reactor all hoked up and running . this one works just like the little ones we are making . it automatically controls the use of co2 without a ph controller and controls the flow through the reactor .

My 50 gallon system has 5 leak detectors, how many do you use on your tank?
