hey guy just wanted to post one of my new mods i did on my tank maybe ya might like the idea and do the same thats what this sites for lol. So i hate buying media just buy carbon i made a nice algae scrubber i put a video up of it a while back i grows algae but i gotta put 2 lights on it which eventually will rust out and need replacement and my evaporation has went up like crazy from maybe 10 gallons a week to over 20 so i gotta make more water and waste my rodi quicker. I made a reactor, i made 2 reactors first one i used just stuff i had laying around the house like some red flood lights and i added blue led strips to it seems to be growing good not even up 2 weeks and cheato has grown like crazy and dragons breath grew but not so much. i put it up on several FB reef forums and got back some info from other members one even showed me his and told me to use 6000 to 6500 k led and showed me the growth in 2 weeks it was amazing i couldn't believe it. You know i had to try it so there was a member her getting rid of a sea side aquatics reactor for only 20 bucks i almost bought the same one the night before on ebay for a 100 great deal he even dropped it of a little acrylic glue and wala it was fixed. i ordered some ebay lights came out to 8.79 for a 16 foot roll i think it even had free shipping and put this together will keep taking pics and keeping ya updated. If i find this lights not growing to fast then am gonna try them red and blue plant grow led strips am still learning. tell me what ya think i put up 2 videos my first reactor and my new one.
