This photo has inspired me to reorganize all my device wiring , LOVE this!!!@redfishbluefish I love it! Great idea building the cabinet to hold all of the equipment. Like you I have an external area for my controls, but I am going to try my hardest to jam pack my dosing equipment into the stand as well. :/ I'm totally ripping off your idea to angle those dosers. That's genius. (assuming you don't mind of course!)
It is indeed! The way my sump is the flow is coming into the refigium at the bottom and entering at the top so I think it might have something to do with that in my case. I also sadly got some cyano in there and there are some bubbles holding it up.
Excellent! I was really hoping this thred could help us all exchange a few ideas. For what it's worth, I picked up that cabinet at Lowes for $19.99 and I took out the mirror and put in a piece of plexiglass that I also picked up from there (I cut a larger sheet that I was doing some other stuff with as well). I have a false wall in there to hide the wires, it was just a cheap piece of closet shelving that was already white.
The Chaetomorpha is neutrally buoyant, and does not have a hold fast like some Macros do. it catches air bubbles, and tends to float. which is good, it seems to do best when best spinning and floating with lots of flow, if its happy it should double in size and be exported every couple of weeks.
Great organization on both! You've got a ton crammed in there and very cleanly I might add. I'm guessing those switches turn various things on and off, do you have your apex setup to turn them off as well?Under my 140...
And under my nano...
Thanks. The APEX on the nano is a Junior, so only a EB-4 - for now. It is limited in how much it can do anyway. It runs my lights and heater. The switches are for things that really don't need to be controlled. MP-10, cabinet lights, refugium pump, return pump, skimmer & ATO (power).
Looking great! I am planning on posting some updates to mine after I get a change to work on it some more this weekend.So seeing that picture of under my tank really made me see how nasty everything has become. 2 hours later....
What did you use for a light in your refugium?Just started my refugium but ill make it better as i go
