Hah. You can see our IG! We’ve posted some images on there. I encourage you to check out our products. Have you seen any of our stuffu
The protein skimmer roller in in stock as we have had it mass produced. Protein skimmers ship next day. The roller mat is late prototype. We are filling early adopter orders via email and making them one at a time. 6-8 weeks lead time.
Our 3 in 1 filter can be run without any controller. It has a mechanical float switch and a 10 second relay that turns it off if on for more than 10 seconds. Scrubber can be run on a timer. Very simple and reliable operation.
Below is a unit we made last week. 2 x 1.5” inlets. On top is algae scrubber, on bottom is roller mat. Connects directly to our protein skimmer roller so all 3 units use the same fleece. The top bulkhead can be used as a smart overflow so you can bypass the roller mat and have it drain to sump if you don’t want to run the roller mat all day.
200 gallons conservatively. It has a 66w power supply, equivalent of 6” neck (not body), 1000 gph pump. Footprint is 8.5”x4.5” fits in almost any skimmer chamber w space saving rectangle shape. Quiet dc control pump and digital motor control for fleece motor both use same power supply. Fixed height overflow eliminates height adjustments and provides constant head pressure and consistent skimming.l regardless of sump level. Just requires 5-11” water in sump. All cast acrylic 1/4” construction, one roll of fleece lasts 3 months at least.
Sorry was bleach not vinegar
Next time I'll just try the sodium carbonate
Also humored, that setup on my heavy stocked 120g would be legit. How wide is the filter roller?
The fleece is 150mm or about 6”. It’s $549 free shipping, delivers 3-5 business days. Fleece lasts 3 months or longer on the skimmer.
Struggling with nitrates I was changing sock daily.
I should Have said it's only a 30 gal tank.
2nd washed roller Matt.
Washed 30min using sodium carbonate and vinegar. Mostly as white as new.
Just a pain to reroll.

I'm thinking of doing this. What ratio of soda ash to vinegar did you use to get your fleece so white?2nd washed roller Matt.

What is coolant paper? I'm not familiar with it.
www.technicaltextilesindia.com
what type of material for coolant paper?Coolant Filter Papers — Technical Textiles India
We supply continuous band coolant filter papers of varying particle retention size to retain the particles from the contaminated filter media. The clean coolant filters out through the fabric leaving a “cake” of the metallic particles.
Search under my name, I've preached and preached about using coolant paper. What you found on ebay is probably sold by the company I reference below.
Just threw it in with a scoop of sodium carbonate and a shot of bleach. I didn't measure anything. But it came out almost as clean as new and it stunk when I unrolled it of hydrogen sulfide. Little bacteria were hard at it.
