This is my first stage pre-filter... the second stage carbon block and third stage 1micron filter werent much better... unbelievable. safe to say I will not be drinking any of my tap water any time soon. :uhoh2: |

Good looking build, but just out of curiosity, if you are doing a herbie should you use gate valves instead of regular on and off valves? I didn't see in the picture. It would be a lot harder to control water flow with a regular union valve. |

True and that is why my plumbing is at a standstill at the moment. Im waiting for my gate valves to come from concept in calgary before I can finish plumbing the system. I threw in a few heaters in order to get free shipping and sure enough they were on backorder so I could be waiting a while before they arrive :cry: The ball valves in the picture are actually 3/4" and are being used in the manifold for my reactors.. |
Gate valves and Jager 300W,250W heaters came today! I am actually super surprised they came so fast because they were on backorder at Concept! I'm working nights for the next bit but hopefully I can find some time to finish up the plumbing! Check back for updates :biggrin:

I got bored on nightshift at work so I did a little editing to the thread. Introduced myself a little better on the first post and made it look nice.. Clearly work was busy tonight... :rolleyes:

Well as I said I got my gate valves so I finally stuck it out all day and got the plumbing done..well pretty much. A few odds and ends still need to be done because I ran out of 1" PVC so my teed line from the return to the fuge has no been done yet. But everything else is plumbed in and ready to go! :mrgreen:

Well needless to say the amount of leaching was minuscule and the water ready only 0.03. http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/...s/SAM_0635.jpg Decided to start scaping my tank!! YAY! Things are finally starting to take some shape! I dont want to drill the rocks and dont have any epoxy as of now so I took my time stacking the rocks and it actually is quite solid. Ill probably end up getting some epoxy just for some added support. Here is what I came up with: http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/...s/SAM_0643.jpg http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/...s/SAM_0646.jpg The pictures below are just with an old 36" Coralife 2 bulb T5 fixture I had lying around. |
Like the aquascaping but it sorta looks like some elongated rock poodle monster or two poodles getting "acquainted". Sorry, its late & my mind may not be all there.
