No suggestion? BTW, i check the ORP this morning and it went from 350 to 385 within couple hours. I love Sanders Ozone generator :D

I didn't see a question in your post. Looks like a serious setup!

Looks good. I too love my Sanders ozone generator. Much better production than any I've tried so far. :)

Be cautious with the Sanders. It will overdose if you are not careful. Keep any eye on it for a few days. Sometimes slower is better. Especially with ozone. :)

I was shock this morning as my ORP went from 350 to 380mV. I have two controller on the Ozone generator so if it got too high one of the controller will shut it down. I use a stronger air pump to run the hose from my garage door to the ozone reactor. I hope it will help...

That is a good move. Keep an eye on how often the generator turns on and off. I think a lower dose more often is better than the max just shooting out every now and then.

It takes some tweaking, but you'll get it. :)

I was going to start at half dosage but you know i am a Marine so i always give 110% hahaha. I have one probe in the sump and the other is in the overflow box....

Look like my water will get clearer today... I have both U.V and Ozone running at the same time so hopefully i will help getting rid of my cyano as well..

Yes, that is admirable but I don't think your tanks inhabitants are Marines, so I would dial it in to dose less more often. :lol:

All my fish have been through combat :D. The remain fish in the tank has been through a good fight with ich, worm and god knows what else during the die off. They did win the battle even though they took a very heavy casualty :lol:

I will dial down the Ozone generator today to may be 150 or 200. FYI my total system is around 700g.
