For sale (2) two like new Attwood Tsunami T800 Bilge Pump - 12V - 760 GPH. Came with boat live well and I never used them. $30.00 each or two for 50.00. Probably good as a backup for power failure if you have a car battery (12v) charged.
Today I ordered the following, thanks for all the advise, it really helps.
Red Sea MCP Marine Care Master Test Kit
Red Sea Reef Foundation Pro Ca/Alk/Mg Multi Test Kit
Hanna HI713 Phosphate Meter Checker, Colorimeter, plus extra reagent.
Downbeach, I haven't opened up the refractometer, do...
I hope to start cooking some rock this week and want to remove phosphates. I've been reading about lanthanum chloride treatment. Does anyone know the concentration for cooking rock?
Mark...
I bought a nice salinity refractometer, but now that I'm getting close to cooking rock and making water I want to to get some recommendations on whats good as well as whats needed especially at start up.
It seems the Hanna phosphate checker is the gold standard for phosphate.
I guess I will...
Ran the RO last night for one hour as recommended to remove any fine particles and then bubbled it for 24 hours before running it through the DI and was pleasantly surprised, it was 012 in and 000 out.
Its easier than setting up an RO/DI unit...Dance
Run wire and add electric box with GFI outlets and connect three wires. Snap in a new breaker...connect three wires. Done.
Thanks, just was going by what the instructions stated, buy glad 90 is ok. Just need to drill out the Brutes and keep an eye on how the floor sump takes the waste water and this part is done.
I'm not a licensed electrician, but when I was younger I worked for one. I went to school for three years for heating/refrigeration and air conditioning too. If you have room in the panel I can talk you through it. Its really not hard. You are close enough to me, to stop by and go over it.
I have decided to try a clean up some of the nasty scratches on my used sump. I just ordered the Novus stuff, just wasn't sure if its safe for inside the tank. Anyone know? Thanks...
Great write up TanksNStuff! Love detailed info.
I was wondering what the TDS are in waste water, does anyone check? Could it have concentrated bad stuff like heavy metals etc?
