    What happened to wet skimming? ;)

    I agree Mike, but it was still worrisome because they weren't anywhere close to working... so I started thinking about it and I reasoned that it was all about matching the stones to the air input and of course the amount of air that you can inject into a given volume of water, but it was still...

    I know, it seems like at the least, they'd be able to get it to produce decent sized bubbles (and then tweak it from there), but they are getting giant bubbles, so I don't know what the deal is w/ them. I just hope I don't run into the same problems. Peace, John

    Mike, Reeffan and fishfood... something. They couldn't get theirs to skim and I think that fishfood guy was trying to get rid of his stones. I don't know what reeffan is trying to do w/ his stones. They posted to your thread and you were trying to help, but to no avail. Those are the only...

    Redeye, One more question. It looks like you used both RO/DI line and then vinyl line to attach to the airstones. Why not use vinyl air line all the way? I guess it doesn't get gripped as well by the JG fittings? Peace, John

    Good to see another happy customer of airstone skimming. :D I was getting so worried after all those other guys posted that their skimmer wasn't coming even close to the results seen by DonW and Mojo. Looks like you found a good spot for those stones. That's about the airflow I hope to...

    Hey Redeye, So how's the airstone skimmer still doing? Are you still happy w/ its performance or have you been tweaking it to try to find the sweet spot? Peace, John

    Mike, Thanks for the update. :) Knowing you, you'll have that puppy up in a day or two. Peace, John H.

    Hey Redeye, This is just an estimate... but your earlier combo cost: Mag18: 145W OR 3700: 2 X 65W= 130W Total= 145W + 130W = 275W New Setup cost= 78W (I'm not including the ozone since it wasn't there before) You have reduced your electrical usage by a little over 70% and you've basically...

    Maybe in a few years when I can afford the procedure, I'll get mine done as well. My roommate got his eyes done like a year ago and he had to get all these drops because he said his eyes would dry up because of the surgery. All is well now though although he has noticed a slight regression...

    Honestly, that looks like a very nice bubble size. I'm sure most would be happy w/ it. If you have to squint to distinguish bubbles, I think that's either a very good sign (tiny bubbles) or a bad sign (you're losing your sight! :D ) Peace, John H.

    crazzyreefer, If you look carefully at the last picture in his first set of posted pictures, you will see a bank of flowmeters. That is what he is using to measure airflow. Peace, John H.

    Those suckers. :) Thanks for the pictures redeye. Those 4 ports for your two recirc. ORs really came in handy. :) Nice organization from the airpump. You've really got those suckers crammed in there. Hehe. Keep us up to date on it's overall performance. How quiet is the pump... I'm...

    More questions redeye! 1. How do you have them connected to your pump? 2. Manifold? 3. How are they mounted? (vertical, horizontal, 45 degree angle, any other angle?) 4. What size airline did you use? 5. Are you using a checkvalve? 6. Where are you keeping the waterline? 7. Will I fail...

    Redeye, That sounds great. I wanted to ask you... How are you calculating energy consumption. I imagine you would be saving a lot more than just 25% on energy because 2 OR3700s w/ a Mag18 equals a lot of power consumption.... at least over 200W. Now, the SL56 from what I can tell from the...

    Man, you are going to blow something up! Haha Take care and post a link once you start up the thread. You have piqued my interest w/ the lights. Peace, John H.

    Redeye, Hope you made it back from those tourneys safe and sound. Any luck on the skimmer? Peace, John H.
