125 Gallon Main Tank with 3" Deep Sand Bed
30 Gallon "long" sump tank
- Kent custom topoff system:
1) Kent Float Valve with "shut-off kit" is plumbed into a 6 gallon bucket top create "reserve RO water"
2) 2nd Kent Float valve operates mercury switch which will pump "Reserve RO water" slowly into sump
- Turbofloater skimmer
- Custom Calcium Reactor
- PinPoint pH Probe in sump
- Custom Temperature monitor system:
1) Digital Temp Probe in tank
2) Second Temp Probe was spliced into Radio Shack Multimeter with PC sync capability
3) Multimeter feeds resistance values into computer, creating a text file
4) resistivity is converted to temp by creation of "calibration curve" which relates resistance to Temp
5) Results can be plotted!
- Lighting:
1) Dual 400W 6500 Kelvin Iwasaki Metal Halides
2) Dual 110W VHO Actinic
3) Total 1020W Lighting
- 300W Heater in Sump
