New tech is always exciting and the latest light from Kessil only adds to the excitement. With the AP9X, Kessil took the time to thoughtfully re-design the popular AP700 and add features that you would expect to see in new generations of aquarium LEDs. I was invited to a one-on-one zoom [...]
After the usual three months of tests here we are for the review of the Rossmont Riser RX 5000 return pump, which has a 5000 l/h flow rate. As we reported for its sister, the RX 3200 (review), the Rx 5000 is an alternating current pump, but it can be adjustable if matched with the Rossmont [...]
Thanks to Reefline for providing us with this ceiling light, we did our tests on the new Aquaillumination Hydra 32 HD in the DaniReef Lab, analyzed the PAR, and created the relative distribution curves. Let's see what we found. The Hydra 32 HD is a new ceiling light that just came out on [...]
We have never tested such a powerful skimmer before! We measured over 1,300 l/h of sucked air, which we had never seen before testing this ATB Medium Size, 25 cm in diameter. First of all we want to remind you that ATB is the acronym for Aquarium Technik Burian, an Austrian [...]
After having tested the older sister, it's now the time for the smaller LED ceiling light Aqamai LRS, a single cluster model that seems to be perfect for nanoreef. Let's see the tests in our DaniReef LAB. This ceiling light is the same as the Aqamai LRM; the only difference is the [...]
Last year, Eshopps launched their color series. I had the opportunity to get my hands on the their Alpha class sump, the AF 300. They had a big line up of sumps and I picked this particular model because I could see that they really paid attention to minor details, such as: 1.) Built in float [...]
We did our test with the Cetus 2 in the DaniReef Lab, where we measured the PAR and created the relative distribution curves. Let's see how it went. Cetus 2 by HM Electronics is a highly requested ceiling light that is especially good for nanoreefs. We had to put it to the [...]
Ideally the pH in a reef tank should be around 8.3 during the middle and latter part of the lighting cycle. Having an optimal pH is very important for coral health and growth rates. If you’re struggling to maintain pH or if your aquarium suffers from chronically low pH, connecting a CO2 scrubber [...]
