    Custom Aquarium Controls

    Nice job! WHat is the black thing on the DIN rail? Empty socket? THere is a demand for better lighting schedules (simulated morning and evening). As far as the pumps-I think you want some random flow as well as some turbulence(all pumps at once for a little while) then calmer water at night...

    scuba diving pony tank

    Helium makes more sense. It makes you sound funny too. Kinda like a munchkin. DOes anyone take underwater PICS when they dive? Off topic but curious. I know there are a few divers on these threads but I don't remember seeing any Pictures.

    ""You two would whisper to each other in a crowded room then smile and not say a word. . . .wouldn't you? You're not gonna tell us are ya? "" I was only teasing, guys!! I think your concerns are valid-and agree with your outlook. I don't believe "if 99% of folks can't do something, then maybe I...

    375 gal. suggestions please

    I'm still jealous of folks with their own fish rooms! No fish room in the near future for me. However, my wife thinks we need a bigger tank. (I really LOVE her!) I've got the room for a tank as big as DBOY999 is talking about here, so I watch this thread with great interest. Then again, by the...

    375 gal. suggestions please

    At first you think yeah-get as much flow as possible through your sump but -- makes a lot of sense. More than your filtration will handle seems like overkill even if you had a big enough sump. Maybe a Bang Guy-type LAGOON project? 7500gph/900gallons = 8times turnover :D Do you have a...

    Hey acrylic, I guess my thinking was a bit OFF. I know you want as big a sump/fuge as you can get. The max flow to/from one would be very limited by the overflows. Nothing says your sump/fuge can't be much larger than the main tank. 7500 gph is pretty far fetched unless you go really BIG!

    Quick question for electicians

    Another Idea if additional breakers are needed: You could use the double breaker slot to feed a smaller (and newer) breaker panel. Then you wouldn't be scrounging to find breakers for the older box. I did something like this for a barn. We just needed a couple of lighting circuits. I found...

    Read "lighting BILL" will be murder!! 20 * 375g = 7500 gph You want as much of this as you can get to go through the sump. The rest can be from power heads or closed loop-better yet. Squid may say something like "Fuge should be 1/3 to 1/2 of tank for malnutrient removal". Although, any fuge...

    scuba diving pony tank

    SCUBA diving I think. There are more than a few on here who like salt water so much that they get in it and swim around. Pretty cool!! I still don't know why you would want your pony in there though. . . .
