Scrubber, skimmer pics & video
 
If you guys {Steve}, go to my gallery, I just added a pic of the scrubber screen and my large beckett skimmer, plus a full tank pic of the new cube sps tank. Still a fair bit of work to do, but the rocks in and the few sps corals I had.

Plus I made a try a doing a video with my digital, {sorry if its not very good}, of the dump cycle. Green chromis are having a ball. It wont attach though, so if anyone wants it, I can e-mail it.

ooh! Ooh! I'm interested ... :biggrin:

(sending you a PM now :biggrin: )

BCOrchidGuy 01-26-2004 09:38 PM

Doug, you mean the photo gallery on here? if so I can't find your pics on there.

Doug

Doug 01-26-2004 10:26 PM

I just checked Doug. It even says I was the last to upload.

Aquattro 01-26-2004 10:27 PM

Doug, not sure you can email a video unless it's really small. Many ISPs have about 5MB limits on email.

Doug 01-26-2004 10:50 PM

Brad, its 703kb. :confused: I sent several out already. Waiting to see if anyone recieved them. Yours is on the way. :biggrin:

StirCrazy 01-26-2004 11:02 PM

Heh,heh, nice and clean. :biggrin:

Me thinks the scrubber and skimmer are a bit of overkill. Also the scrubber, despite its benefits, is to large for the tank and in my way. I think Steve, it may be the skimmer only.

impreza 01-27-2004 01:14 AM

thxx!!

Steve, you need to login again when using the Photo Gallery. It hasn't been fixed yet to autologin for us.

Looks great! Is this a new tank?

What's the lighting setup? I like the colour of the tank.

BCOrchidGuy 01-27-2004 02:55 AM

Doug, you say that's clean??? wow I'd call that spotless, looks like a tank that was set up 5 minutes ago. Super nice set up.

StirCrazy 01-27-2004 03:14 AM

how big is the algae filter? and can I see pics of the whole thing?

Steve

sumpfinfishe 01-27-2004 04:38 AM

Doug,
Looks great so far, also is that a coral covered bottle at the middle section of the reef? :cool:
I really like some of the shapes of that rock :biggrin:

Doug 01-27-2004 01:49 PM

Thats correct about logging on to the gallery guys. Thanks Sam, I never though that was the problem.

The tank is a 75g. 30in.L by 24in.H by24in.W

Yes Jack, its new. I will post a pic of the new empty tank tomm. {Must go to the big city today. :eek:} Its lit with a 400w Radium, powered by a Bluewave pulse start ballast.

The contents are whats left from the 225g, which is sold. I only kept sps corals and for fish, my green chromis, the old fat mandarin, the large female clarkii, {which is from a friends tank where my cinnamon pair now reside}, and a home born baby bangaii, raised in the 225,s overflows. :D

Doug, you will never see any debris on the bottom of that tank. There is current from the two Hagen 800 ph returns, the powerfilter, and a Tunze 6080 stream pump, {I even had them both running at one time. :lol: }.

Yepper, thats an old coralline covered bottle. Found it in an lfs several years ago. Except for the large queen conch shell on the bottom right, the rest is all Fiji rock. I do have a piece or two of some old Florida rock I have had for about 13 yrs. The piece on the bottom left, with the brown digita is one of them. The bottom has some beautiful old sponge growth.

I will take a pic of it all for you Steve. Its about 34in.L by a ft. wide. by 9in.H . Please nobody ask for detailed measues and pics. I wish nothing to do with all the lawsuits that went on in the US, regarding this type of scrubber. :lol:

StirCrazy 01-27-2004 11:52 PM

what lawsuits?

Steve

BCOrchidGuy 01-28-2004 03:03 AM

How about the law suit on RC about Rio power heads.... want part of that one??lol

Doug

Doug 01-28-2004 02:34 PM

I can barely read that one Doug. :lol: FWIW, my son and I had three different Rio pumps fail, back in the mid 90,s.

Steve, without getting into it, there was a suit involving the use of Adey,s turf scrubber patents. There were several threads on RC about it. Perhaps a search under ATS, on Erics forum may bring one of them up.

and my thanks to you Arty for the video post. You will have to show me how you did that someday. :biggrin:

Doug 01-29-2004 10:53 PM

Here is the new tank being put into place.

BCOrchidGuy 01-30-2004 02:35 AM

Cool system Doug.

Glad to see you were sane enough not to get into that Rio debate, lol

Doug
