Mailman paid me a visit today as did the Red Coral fairy. I've got some fiddlin' to do today to take care of my rowaPhos black algae with the BRS HC GFO and appease my laziness with the doser. It's getting a little crowded by my stairs with equipment lol.

Nice please keep updated on the dosing pump i am thinking of switching that way more control over the level vs ca reactor.

Ah yes. Dosing pump is the only way to go.

I've never used a reactor but I've never really wanted to. I don't trust regulators, don't want a pressurized cylinder in the house and like independant control of my params. That's just me but I've loved dosing so far. I just wanted to have the dosing done for me lol.

I've got the standard 1 gallon BRS jugs propped between the studs against the stairs. Gotta keep it ghetto down there.

I'm still banging my head trying to sort out how to mount this doser. I don't want it to stick out from the wall in fear a head will hit it. Looking to see if it can mount flush to the wall...

Thanks Randi stuff is growing slow but steady I guess. I want some colony-on-colony action but I guess I gotta be patient =)

So if anyone wants to see proof of that good old saying "it's who you know not what you know" here it is. I had GHL boss Matthias custom fab me this slick mounting bracket and drop ship it straight from Germany.

To the untrained eye it looks like some old ikea door handles, some bent up brackets I had laying around and a piece of braided flex hose but don't be fooled. This is ALL win

That's so strange. Only my posts?? Man what did I ever do to your work computer?? It sounds like a big meanie. Yeah, you heard me, I said big meanie. Hi Mom. In all seriousness I have to wonder if it could be my avatar image then? If it's only MY posts??? Does it at least show that or does it cut out beforehand? You should see if you can grab a screen capture of it happening..
