very nice tank!

6Speed · 05/04/2012, 11:26 AM

I love this tank so much! Details? Lights, equip? tank size?

Love the rose nem in teh middle. The pop of red really sets the whole tank off! How do you keep it from splitting and taking over the tank?

bellis31 · 05/04/2012, 11:39 AM

This is a very nice tank, great job!

jean yves · 05/04/2012, 03:49 PM

Thank you for your compliments.
The interesting things about this tank, is that i only use a hydroxide reactor controlled by a ph meter..
The mix hydroxyde/water used is very concentrate and it's introduce drop by drop through a reaction chamber
By this way Ph Ca Kh are always stable.

Is there a way to insert the video ?

Amazing job! I too would love details about your tank and equipment!

As always please feel free to post more pics; it's such a beautiful display.

reefsahoy · 05/05/2012, 05:00 AM

Very nice indeed. Whats the size of your tank? Details would be nice, like lights, dosing, etc. Are you in france? Would love to see your tank in person!

jean yves · 05/05/2012, 05:28 AM

Well, 500 liter tank 130 80 55 (centimeter)
Acrylic, external overflow. 2 MP40.
10 X 54 W T5, DSB in the annex tank.
ATI 200i, Aquatronica to drive the injection of hydroxide.
Once again, the interesting thing about the maintenance is the way i use hydroxide.
PH 8,5 KH 8 CA 450

Kamao · 05/05/2012, 07:27 AM

Not exactly nano, but it looks good.

StevenSinger · 05/05/2012, 07:53 AM

WOW, looks very healthy, what brand is the dosing pump?

it's better to use a dimmable one.
Have you ever heard about this method ?

Is this like a kalk reactor?

jean yves · 05/07/2012, 01:58 PM

yes that's it, i only use a kalk reactor controled by a ph meter not by osmolation

Do you use an apex or similar controller, or something independently made just for the kalk reactor?

jean yves · 05/09/2012, 08:25 AM

a Aquatronica, the system is securised by a second ph probe and a level probe

NatureNerd · 05/21/2012, 08:30 AM

Beautiful tank. Tell us more about using pH to control kalk dosing. What is your method?

jimmy n · 05/21/2012, 09:19 AM

Tagging for kalk dosing info

jean yves · 05/21/2012, 09:33 AM

I said all most every thing :

i only use a hydroxide reactor controlled by a ph meter.
The mix hydroxyde/water used is very concentrate (like milk) and it's introduce drop by drop through a reaction chamber
At the end of this reaction chamber the two ph probe, and a water level probe just in case...

By this way Ph Ca Kh are always stable and you are not limited by the quantity of water used for osmolation.
