yea i think im just gonna have to get a new pump, sucks because i just bought the sicce today specifically for the zeo reactor.

Thanks for the reply. Im adding it to an existing system that already has low nutrients. Ive read through the zeovit guide and am going to run the pump off my apex for 3 hours on 3 hours off at a recommended 180 gph. I do believe the stones are causing too much head pressure, causing the...

Hope I'm posting this in the right place. I've recently decided to try the Zeovit system and had a question about flow rate to the reactor if anyone has experience with it or knows. I know I should have around 180 gph of flow to the reactor, the problem I'm having or I guess question I have...

Thats the route I took, just did it and didnt even have to ask for forgiveness when she saw how awesome it was

Ouch! well at least there is hope

Ha, yea Gablami, i caught the bug hard

Here are the latest pics, took them this morning

scuzy said it right, thats what i did. I went to kelly moore and told them what i was painting and they gave me a durable paint and i did three coats. tanks been up and running for 7 months and its been good.

I currently have four in my tank, the original I bought a little less than a year ago has split three times. If anyone wants one and can bring something to transport them they are yours. I'm looking to get rid of three and would rather give them to someone on here than back to the LFS. Let me...

This is a new tank, only been up for about four months but the rock is from my other tank that was running for almost two years

Just looked up pics of pineaple sponge, that is definatley what they are. Anyone know how to get rid of them?

I have a bunch of these white things growing on one rock in my tank. I just noticed them this morning but there is a whole bunch of them. They are tube shaped with what looks like little hairs at the tips. At first I thought apistasia but after looking at pics online, they dont look like...

I'll keep that in mind. The only thing I have to run off it now is my two stage brs gfo/carbon reactor. I threw the other valves in just because I wanted to be able to expand in the future. I know I'll have to readjust the bean flow rate from the drain after hooking up the reactor and changing...

Hey Rygh, yea it is definitely not big enough. Im planning on getting another one, just using the ehiem for the time being. I was thinking of the new pump from ecotech or a sicce silent

Thanks for the compliments everyone. I fired up the pump and was at first concerned with how loud the bean animal drain was. I played around with it for a while and finally decided to cut the pipe down below the water line. I had it at about six inches below an took it down to two. After...

Ha, would have been a good idea, good thing I have a big drop cloth to drape over it

Hello everyone. Im sitting here waiting for my tank to fill up with water so I thought I would post some pics on what I've been doing the last month. I finally got the stand I built skinned and the doors made/mounted. I decided on a trigger systems emerald 39 sump and got it all plumbed in...

No, i just did it along the front because of the span, I didnt want to use a center support. I have supports along the back so I just used 1 2x8 on the back and sides

Thanks! Yea, well it's actually two 2x8's glued and screwed together. Probably overkill, but I would rather overbuild than have a problem down the road.

thanks for the replies xcaret and rygh. I ended up going with the 1/2 inch styrofoam insuluation from lowes.
