I actually prefer to start a reacotr on a new system if you have one. This will allow you the time to tweak the reactor before it is necessary to keep up with a huge CA demand. For best results, get your CA and ALK where you want them with a buffer solution, then let the reactor maintain...

You could probably use weldon 4052...it is a thick acrylic to PVC glue. I will have to look, but I think it also states ABS also.....

Reminder that the Anthony Calfo event is October 11 at 7:30. The book signing will start at 7. Anthony will be speaking on coral propogation. The event is at: Global Learning Center Site Map 1 Site Map 2 84 5th St Atlanta, GA 30332 678-407-3773 We will be having raffles for Kent...

Oops double post. :D

If your reactor has the effluent drip valve at the exit of your reactor, this will in essence slow the flow down form the "tee'd" portion of your input. I would put a valve, probably the JG at the inlet for maintenance...so you can shut it off and not have to worry about leaks....

I have 6 Anthias and 2 tangs that love to eat...so i do feed fairly heavily, but not as heavy as I used to....I only feed 3 cubes 1 time/day now, I used to feed that twice per day... :D

3 days in my 400.....

FWIW, PVC sheet isn't that much less expensive than acrylic....much denser and harder to route if you go beyond 1/4" Have to have special glue if you bond it to acrylic....etc etc....it can be done though...

LOL Dan.....I have been looking for a male and female watanabei for a while...maybe I will have second thoughts now. HAHA

I haved used CaribSea ARM for about 3 years now and have never felt the need to try anything else.....it does what I want.

I was going to do My Reef, but I was afraid I might get pulled over... :roll: So I am going to do MRC next time tags are due.....

Osama, I sent you a PM....we will replace the flanges with our new 3/8" thick version. These also have a much thicker Oring. If you want us to do it send me an email at [email protected] Thanks!

Thanks Ralphy....glad the reactor is working out for you.... Nice looking corals there... It is amazing the coralline that will grow. Your corals will start taking off next! :D

I may be wrong, but I think that is Arnon's tank...out near San Diego... I know it isn't Jeff's tank. I will see if I can find his board name again....

Just saw the picture....I didn't wait for it to DL. :D Anyway, I would definitely lower the water line in the bottom tube....the MAK 4 is an Iwaki 55 clone not the PCX pump.....If you don't have enough pump power it could be trickling out of the beckett, but shouldn't be shooting out.
