Well I pulled out my old camera and picked up some rechargeable batteries for it because it goes through a set in a day. Here are the pcitures I have been meaing to post for the last several weeks.
First pic is just one of the ball valves I installed. I orginally had all flexible tubing and replaced with pvc
New toy from from a member of the reef club i am part of. Not sure if the probe is reading right for it has only peaked at 320. I will be testing it this weekend.
The overflow is split with a T. Water goes to the left side which is where the skimmer is located and some water goes to the right side where the refugium is located. The center has the return pump.
This shows a picture of the refugium side. I currently have a 2500k bulb but will replace when i get 5600k bulbs in madison next week. The pvc u on the front right of the pictures is hooked up to a maxijet 900 that pumps water into my frag tank next too it. The clear u-tube on the back right side siphons the water back from the frag tank to the refugium.
While shopping I saw the union valves and realized i almost forgot them. First picture is from the 75 gallon that has ozone injected into it. You can kind of see that it is clearer then the other pump which is tied to the 40 gallon tank.
i made new racks for the frag tank. I constructed the frame using 1/2 inch pvc and fittings (3 way?). This allowed fore a frame with legs all tied together. Much better then my old system of just using pvc with elbows. Made two to stack on top of eachother.
This is my DIY overflow. I used 3 inch pvc that i cut grooves into for inside the tank and i drilled an old broken hob canister fillter and installed bulk head for the part outside the tank. I am using 1 1/4 flexible tubing for now to bring water over the tank.
40 gallon display with only inverts for now. Might either be an aggresive tank with snowflake eel or seahorse and pipefish tank.
40 gallon skimmer which isn't making much microbubbles. Not sure what is up. It is a coralife needle wheel 65.
75 gallon display left, center, right
That is all I have. Thanks for looking and any comments are welcomed of course.
