The Miracle Tank

[Katrina71]

Why shouldn't our tanks be art? Imagine iridized opalescent stained glass on the rear panel. Black, dark blue, or white.

cause then we would have to clean back glass..lol

I'd just backlight the coralline.

Speaking of backlighting, if you have a thick enough tank wall, you can put LEDs facing inwards on the back and light the panel. It's a nice touch to add some deep blue inside the glass for moon phase lighting.

Lol sorry, wrong thread

Totally the right thread... You just don't know it yet. ;Shamefullyembarrased

speaking of the back glass panel, since it didn't break when hit by the bowling bowl, why not make the front panel of the same stuff?

So, I took my water to my LFS today... just to make sure I wasn't going crazy, because I felt crazy, even after spending 120 on RODI filters....

21.6 DKH

[fishguy242]

That was too easy.

what in the, he double hockey sticks you talkin about ,you on wrong thread too tonight?

 

[StatelineReefer]

Out of the unit... and no, wait... not 21.6... 21.6 was what my reading was... their Hanna says 24.2.

Lemme back up for a minute and say... I JUST replaced every filter on my RODI... I should not be seeing Alk that high.... I'm not DOSING alk at all. So that crazy of an alkalinity is something that worries me.

[Katrina71]

I'm off today. Tank is in Knoxville. Let's see if I can get an appointment to inspect it. I spoke with the shipping co, and Victoria was less than thrilled that I wanted to inspect the package. I could almost hear the eye roll.

 

[Katrina71]

I had already been warned.
