Scott's 135 gallon display tank build

[Gp Scott]

So I think I found my noisy pump problem. I pulled the impeller out and this is what I found. The shaft had broken peace off of it and I believe it's porcelain. This is a new pump

I have to thank Eli at fijirock for the awesome aqua scape Eli is a pro hope no one has to compete against him at the fragfest. http://youtu.be/2WoBaVX_QDA

Just picked up some sand today.

[Gp Scott]

So I made some ro- di water about maybe 300 gallons and my Tds is reading 2 ppm that can't be right.

[Gp Scott]

On my ro- di unit I shut valves and let it pressure up and back flush then opened valves back up now it's ready zero. I also checked it with hand held meter and it read zero so I'm not sure y it was reading 2 ppm

Did a few things today built removable sub floor and mounted Neptune. I have Neptune hooked to Internet but still have to program.

[Gp Scott]

So today I was playing around with my apex neptune trying to program my jebao wave makers and lights but I'm not finding it very user friendly I thought it was going to be easier but maybe I just need more time with it. I also found the instruction cd manual to be all over the place and having to go back and forth trying to figure things out.

My tap water in Toronto has about 250 TDS. Yours seem very high.

It's because it's well water it actually goes over 1000 ppm my water is really soft and clear and no chlorine but was lab tested and it's all good.
