Ande's 270'ish bar peninsula style tank build

[andestang]

A couple of new goodies. Thought I'd give the pellets a try. Seems most people are having some good results with them. I do have a heavy bio load as I feed my fish a good amount. I do also run Zeovit at the moment so I'll see how they work together. I'm a Tunze fan but this pump sure looks like a Sicco pump, I'll have to do a little digging to see if there is any connections. I really like the twist off top of the Vertex reactor, may have to get another one for my carbon.


The goodies



The Tunze 1073.02 pump for the reactor



The Vertex UF 20 reactor

Hmm.. Perhaps.. But still, I'm a little jealous that Ande's is a lot longer than mine and has a greater capacity for all that white stuff. Anyway, can't wait to see it in action. Make a video!

Tanks going to be great when it's up and running Mike! Might need a few more frags for it....

As long you don't have a kink anywhere and you have good head pressure I'm sure yours is just fine.

So I finally got around to finishing most of my mixing station. I just have to see if the second container is better above this one or just beside it. At least right now I can make my water change for my current set ups. I'm just using a mag 18 for a pump, should be enough for what I need to do.

Interesting placement. I'd consider running the pipes under some throw rugs to reduce tripping and aesthetic hazards. Otherwise looks pretty sweet man.

How do we know it's not sitting in a really comfortably decorated tank room? I think it's brilliant. I'm so putting a tiny sectional in my tank room now. Capital idea!
