THE Tank Build By Aqua Digital

[Aqua-Digital]

That makes sense, for me the reason more to switch back is that the return is like Viagra, sorry i mean Niagra

So one x 4 hour old Tunze Silence 1073.040 up for grabs if anyone wants a bargain

$149.00 shipped all in

With my 45g corner w 10g sump. I built the sump with a back and forth style baffles along with the verticles, to effectively double it's length and the time for the microbubbes to escape. Return pump was a Mag 350. And I even found I had to throttle that back to keep the microbubbles out of the display.

So I vote for slow, just because of physical sump size

Interesting

The bubble magus even at 300GPH over spec is not producing micros but I am for sure goign to go back to a trickle of a flow and see how the tank performs as the Tunze is way over driving the skimmer if nothing else

Wahoo

The main build is pretty much finished

As you can see below the lights are in place and fully programmed to the GHL, in fact the Profilux has pretty much full control of every aspect of the tank. This weekend I will do a review of what is controlled, how it is controlled and screen shots of programmed software pages.

The hanging kit was custom made by Chris (Boboxx) I have to thank him for the amazing job he did of this and also of course the quality stand.

The pump debate actually produced a huge oversight on my part, I guess running a business and also trying to do a tank build made me lose my head. I forgot the most important element and that was to at least have a flow rate to match the skimmers requirements and I was WAY short of that, this has lead to not enough draw from the surface of the water to stop bio film, so i now have a suitable balanced tunze coming that will draw 500L and hour at 1.5 meters, perfect for the skimmer and tank, thanks to Phil at Xenia for shipping it so fast

The photos below show the lights are on about 60% at this time as they are slowly dimming for the evening. As you can see they are mega bright and need to be throttled right back. If you are looking for ultimate light control then seriously get these units The ProfiLux cloud simulation is amazing also, I have it set to 25% and 50% dimming at random.

Here are some pics

Thanks

Yes the wires will be rooted once i am happy with the height of the lamps, I still think they may have to go up by 3" which means raising the bars.

The back will be Black by Monday also, so no wires
