Hehe, yeah well good thing is all I need to buy is a return pump(probably just a MJ1200 or a Hagen 402/802) and since I already have a couple other powerheads it would be fine. I guess I have to buy a MJ600/900 for my DYI skimmer too but thats it. I already have the rock/eggcrate and all that stuff lol.

I dont have pics of either right now, but I will post some up tomorow of both tanks.
Im glad also the way everything has turned out, my cleanup crew in my 15g consists of only 1 huge turbo snail, 2 ceriths, and 2 blue-leg hermits...I have had NO green algae whatsoever from the begging, my only problem in that tank is cyano, but It seems to be going away now. Im hopping I can pull this off in the new tank with better success and no cyano. Chris

This is my first picture post...so hopefully it will work.
This is a sneak preview of my greenhouse project. I will start a full thread in a couple of weeks after the fresh water testing. Yes...the top pool rotates so that i can reach all sides. |

One problem with hosting pics on a private ISP occurs if your pic (or thread) is popular. A large number of viewers can use up your ISP bandwidth allowance. FWIW

ok it worked.
I just drained a 180 gallon tank into the vat with the 1000 watt 20k over it I have to drill it so I can connect them. The 1000 watt bulb is about 2 years old but will do till I get some new ones ordered and finish the system. I also just set up the other 300 gallon with fresh salt a week ago. I still have to get more salt and another 300 gallon vat but they were out of stock on the vats, I got the last one.I may call around and try to find another today. Anyway the ASM G6 in the other vat will be removed when I get a large external ETS. All 3 300 gallon vats will have 1000 watt 20ks to supplement the sun when needed. I'll post a better pic when its all complete. This is set up in a 16x20 attached greenhouse so alot of the time I dont even need the halides. I may just connect 2 of the 300 gallons to the 180 glass tank and leave the 3rd 300 Rubbermaid as a stand alone QT/prop system just incase. |

Sounds like a nice, big system.
1000W to supplement the sun eh? You didnt think 400W 20K would suffice? Chris

Shawn I feel comfortable saying that I considered most obsticles.
I have been already runing 2 1000 watters 12 hrs a day anyway. these 3 will only run 5-6 hrs a day when needed....somtimes weeks/months will go buy when they are not even needed, so my electric bill should be less than it has been.When they are run it will be from 6am-11am when its cool...there is a exhaust fan for heat..but if needed I will get air cooled hoods. I like the spread of the 1000 watter over the 300 Rubbermaids, also I only need one reflector and cord like this. I have a 180 gallon glass tank that will have a 400 watt 20k(12hrs per day) on a hydroponic light mover as well.This is also gonna connect to the system. |
