Fifth week update: Nitrate: 5ppm Phosphate: 0.68ppm Diatom algae still growing on the scrubber. There was also some green hair algae growing in a...
Finished fourth week of cycling: Ammonia: 0ppm Nitrite: 0ppm Nitrate: 0ppm Phosphate: 0.59ppm Still growing brown algae / diatoms on the screen...
Since you said iron and potassium is pretty hard to overdose, I guess a dosing ratio could worked out once we know approximately the algae uptake...
That's a lot of potassium :eek:, cheap though. Are you going to test it out to see if you get stronger growth dosing potassium and iron?
Beautiful
Finished third week of cycling: Ammonia: 0ppm Nitrite: 0ppm Nitrate: 5ppm Phosphate: 0.58ppm Looks like I'm close to the end of the cycle....
Maybe Steve can compare them? :)
On the RapidLED website the 660nm Luxeons are listed as: Minimum Luminous Flux 300mW, Maximum Flux 350mW @350mA Which is pretty much the same as...
Anybody seen this? http://www.rapidled.com/cree-xp-e-photo-red-660nm-led/ CREE's version of the Luxeon 660nm. It can be run at 1000ma, as...
Small update, going to give it a clean today as it's covered pretty well in diatoms. [IMG]
Finished second week of cycling: Ammonia: 0ppm Nitrite: > 5ppm Nitrate: 160ppm Phosphate: 0.48ppm Looking a bit ugly at the moment. Diatom algae...
Added some live rock today, had a thin covering of hair algae in some areas, so at least I know now that it's definitely in the tank.
Dang
My understanding is that algae releases organics, which are essentially food to corals. But scrubbers can produce more than what the SPS corals...
Wow that was an absolutely stunning tank. That would be gutting to say the least.
I'm not sure, it's spinning quite fast, but not crazy fast. I've got the lights at 40% intensity. I have no idea on how long an algae scrubber...
Finished first week of cycling: Ammonia: 2ppm Nitrite: 5ppm Nitrate: 40ppm Phosphate: 0.47ppm No growth on scrubber. Surprised that I've already...
Looks like we have some serious product overload going on at santa-monica.cc, with several new products added. Eleven products under 2 cubes per...
First test was today, didn't bother checking nitrite/nitrate because I'm only at the start of the cycle. Ammonia: 0.25ppm, Phosphate: 0.4ppm
It's taken a while to get here, but the scrubber is finally operational :) Have switched out the Eheim 600 pump I had for the Eheim 1000, as the...
