Yellowworld's 2012 Nano Contest Entry

[yellowworld]

the probes have what looks like a tube inside of them, with a few small air bubbles, so im assuming there is something liquid inside of them. They also have tags on them, the guy i bought the apex off of had them calibrated last month, they are also still currently in my plumbing with no water, but im going to charge that line with saltwater right now

You will still need to recalibrate once you get the system up & running just to make sure everything is correct.

Do i need the calibration fluid for that? cus i dont have any haha also i just looked, and i dont have any salt!! haha i sold the last of it with my old tank

do you think there would be any problem using table salt to mix up about 50ml of water to keep them wet, or is there any point is getting them wet again cus ill have to recalibrate them now anyways

Just throw some FW in the line for now & you could get calibration fluid from concepts when your ready. I just check a brand new ph probe I have & it's not SW in the cap.

pH probes are generally shipped with a neutral cal solution
Not sure about the redox ones

Nice work on the sump ... just one question
What are your plans for circulating the fuge water ? I only see a dam wall ...
Are you planning on a small pump to feed it ?

Perfect, i have freshwater running thought the tank right now, YES its finally full of water, just no salt sorry

The return pump is decided, the line that has the probes in it will feed the fuge, the rest of the water is sent up top where it is divided once more fora special surprise i have waiting for you guys when i do the rock work



The red is the water destined for the display tank
The blue is the water destined for the refugium

They both come from the return pump and "T" off

Ahh, I should have spotted that in your plumbing
Great work and planning

[yellowworld]

OK!! Now that we figured out how we know its not saltwater hahaha i have one final set of pictures for you before I put my tools away

Enjoy!

The middle compartment will have my filter sock in it once i get the glass cut with a whole big enough haha
