It`s been 9 days since I installed this.....thanks to Bud and his patience for some very good advice. Hows it looking and should I be cleaning the screen? Thanks.
You could clean it now or in a few days. At this point just a swipe of the palm or rub with fingertips, then rinse with a cup of tank water. Don't scrub or scrape
I`ll leave it till the weekend Bud, I`m going to change the weir tube for a wider diameter one.....I think that`s why it`s a little noisy.
And i was right, the tube I used was just not large enough diameter-wise and now all is quiet. I have also installed the 2 ip65 LEDs which arrived this morning. I`ll clean the screen in a day or two.
2nd cleaning today and a nice growth of GHA. Used a credit card to clean it off and rinsed in ro/do water before refitting. Hows it looking?
Yes, I was surprised at the growth since last weekend and how it`s gone from the brown to green....you don`t notice the colour under the red LEDs which replaced the warm whites last Saturday.
