Is anybody on here running a system without a Fuge /Algae Scrubber or carbon dosing?
a few months ago i was looking into doing a DIY drop algae scrubber, but after doing some research on mostly parts and other materials needed it kinda went over my $60 total budget.
currently i have been looking into getting one of these DROP.2 drop-in upflow algae scrubber with Green Grabber surfaces - 0.2 cubes feeding per day as this was the basis of my DIY experiment. I have done as much research as possible on this item and this particular unit will fit perfectly in the rear chamber of my AIO unit.
Before i do make the purchase, are there folks running systems without the items mentioned above? i would like to know what nutrient exporting methods you are using. currently i am using a skimmer, pond matrix, chemi-pure elite, purigen, rough and fine filter pads in my media basket.
i have been having a small issue with GHA that i can't seem to fully kick, i got it down but it hasn't gone away.
if not, i will purchase this item, and post up reporting on it.
