What that tells me is that your pump is experiencing a bit of head loss as growth increases. You said your pump was about 500 GPH rated so maybe...
How much water was going through the emergency drain before you changed it? 10%? 40%?
I'll have to re-read this and get back to you, so you had the main drain cranked way down, nearly closed?
1.4 has been installed!
The connection would then be either N or P. Ricky was lowering it by carbon dosing, you by water changes. It doesn't have to be zero to be a...
Thanks for the information. Yet another clue...but to what I still have no idea!!!
I'd say at 3 months you're pretty safe to put a couple tangs in. They will hopefully graze on the algae as well.
Hmmm...I think I may have missed this before, but then again, there was no issue with getting growth at first. So your pump is rated for 500 GPH,...
If the actual flow 500 GPH, or is that the pump rated flow? How much are you currently feeding?
I was looking at it on my phone last night...now I see you are right, those are pods, you can see the little appendages! I guess now that I can...
Still not sure what is going on with the scrubber, but you have a dinoflagellate outbreak in your tank, not algae. This is a bit typical in a new...

Just in case anyone is wondering... I have started up another small batch of scrubbers, basically the parts I have left on hand. I have acrylic...
Standard table saw blades are 1/10" wide so your slot is probably bigger than 1/8" if you offset the teeth when sandwiching the blades together -...
Your screen looks like it is 4.5" wide, so 4.5 x 35 ~= 160 GPH, you should be fine there with a 700 GPH pump minus head loss. Sometimes it's hard...
The light may have been a bit too much for the bare screen, but it was perfect for your mature screen. What you are describing seems to fit that...
Yikes! I had a fish die and get sucked on to the scrubber pump and it choked off 95% of the flow for about 24-36 hrs, screen went white, house...
The theory is that large bubbles cause movement better than small, but my feeling is that it is water flow that matters most. I would think a pump...
