    Aquacontroller III not working properly:(

    I bought mine used also and had a few problems in the beginning. I emailed and called the company and they were very helpful.

    I got rid of them!!!

    You can also buy a syringe at a hobby shop. They have a curved, pointy tip on them. I cut the tip back a bit to make a larger opening so the kalk does not clog them. They are for glue application.

    Anyone using window film to prevent algae growth?

    The biggest issue is algae on the glass. I can tell it is from the window because there is a clean spot where a post blocks the light. I would just like to scrape the glass less. Everything else is pretty clean. I do all the maintenance and water changes needed. It is not direct sunlight. What...

    Anyone using window film to prevent algae growth?

    I have a large window above my stairway that causes continual algae growth in my tank. Has anyone tried any kind of window tint film on their nearby windows? Lowes and HD both carry Gila, but I do not know which to choose. Any suggestions would be helpful, I have considered mini blinds also...

    bending acrylic?

    I have some strips with hot wire in them. I got them from an auction at a aquarium builder a few years ago. There is an aluminum channel with the elements in it attached to a reheostat. Never used them yet. They are how they bent acrylic if it did not go in their big pizza oven.

    Calc reactor Question

    Thanks everyone for the input! Now I need to figure out what i will do. I have an Aquacontroller II it only uses X10's. So far for the last 6 months it has worked flawlessly to control lights, pumps, Kalk mixing in the garage and water replenishment. I think I will try the solenoid on an X10 as...

    Calc reactor Question

    Really, I haven't heard that. What is the problem? How do you control a reactor with a controller?

    Calc reactor Question

    My controller uses an x10 so distance will not be a problem on th power to the regulator. The regulator does have and adjustable output. My tank consistently runs over 8.5 ph due to the Kalk reactor. Everybody is acclimated and healthy at that range amazingly. It does not vary more than a .02...

    Calc reactor Question

    I am finally installing a calcium reactor I have had for years. My question is: I want to put the co2 tank in my garage downstairs. That will require about 50' of tubing to get the gas through the floor and to the reactor. The solenoid will be controlled by my controller based on ph in the tank...

    Non Splitting RBTA, He's Big and Growing

    Unfortunately, I only have room for one tank. I wish it was as easy as poking it with a stick!

    Non Splitting RBTA, He's Big and Growing

    Here's a couple of pics I took tonight. It is not fully extended in these it closed when I cleaned the glass.

    Non Splitting RBTA, He's Big and Growing

    I am not sure I could bring myself to frag it. I once poked a hole in one I was trying to get off a rock for a guy and it died. I guess I will just wait it out. I will try carbon again. If I could get the clown out and to the sump for a month or so, it would probably split, but that would be...

    Non Splitting RBTA, He's Big and Growing

    My tank has gone through a lot in the last six months. I swapped out VHO's for MH's and apparently did not acclimate them slowly enough and I had a lot of die off on my SPS'. At the same time the the pump on my ASM skimmer died and it was two weeks to get a new one. As a result I had the worst...
