I'm afraid that if I'd have an anemone Hydor will turn it into a tartare - no?
Was thinking in line of AI Nero 3 pricey or maybe Hygger 1500 - Hygger seems to be affordable, Doesn't have all those gaps (Sucks from the back only) and offers programmability with linkage to the lighting system...
Teem Reefs,
Could one advise me on the flow situation in my biocube?
I currently have a return pump with random flow rotating head (Chamber 3);
Blocked bottom input on chamber 1 (to encourage skimming) and a powerhead (constant flow) pointing in opposite direction, right under the intake of...
OK, Another Saturday is here.
Used turkey bastard to whiff the uglies off the rocks
Noticed that I got much less uglies since adjusting the light spectrum on AI 16 and introducing Sea Lettuce to the display tank.
Scrubbed the glass.
Used the fish net and turkey baster to catch and release all...
Dont remember if i had posted about it, but my skimmer kinda broke. The wooden(?!) Bubbler split in half and separated from the unit.
I did repair it rhough!
Removed the white airhose-to-bubbler adapter. Cut-off hardened length of a tubing. Attached a cylindrical aquarium air bubble diffuser...
BioCube Care Day
Scrubbed filmy dark susbtance off the rocks, glass and sand as well as off the powerhead. Scooped it up with fish net
After turning off just the return pump performed a 1/2g water removal.
Checked in-tank Lettuce sheet weight - comes in at 18g. Checked that mid-chamber is OK...
I listed them on eBay
Here
$7 each or 3 for $15.
Currently sitting in the back of my biocube...
Meet by Grand Central or along East side (42-14 streets).
Not exactly my BioCube, but closely related!
Setup Phyto and Copepod "farms."
These are super low tech and are sort of experimental.
Bought a kit off eBay
Bought 4-way Gang valve off Amaxon
Used lighter to fit air tube over gang valve's unexpectedly large input nipple... (airline could fit...
Apparently I've been doing 1/2g water changes!
PWC: So, today another 1/2G water change made. 2.5Lb of live rock removed from the tank, brush scrubbed under 1/2 water (freshly taken out from the tank) and carefully re-placed back into the tank's center forming a "reef wall?" Keeping away from...
Added a bottle-cap of Phyto and a capful of "water" from each of the "Pods" bottles I got. Though I do not see any active pods in them (!?) - wonder if that is because of my low vision....
