Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
I had a 5 day weekend, that helped alot. I also ran 2 dedicated 20 amp lines for this system. Filling it with RO/DI water seems to be taking longer than any of the other projects.
I picked up a 180 RR AGA from another member here. Got it all cleaned up and started filling it yesterday. My list of equipment so far:
acrylic 65g long from glasscages for sump refugium.
ASM G4-X, 2 - Korlia 3's, 2 - Korlia 4's, 2 - mag 9.5's for returns, reefkeeper 2 controller, 500w heater...
07/19/07 test:
sg 1.025
ammonia 0.0
nitrite 0.0
nitrate <10
ph 8.0
alk 2.5
temp 79.2
cal 440
The only thing I've added is Kent buffer for the ph and alk. Seems to have come a long way in a very short time?
water is ro/di from a new air water ice system. TDS was 112 from tap, 0.000 from ro/di filter. rock is uncured, sand was really moist, should'nt be too dead.
