    Aqua Print has a cool new Hexlock modular cabinet system. Great stuff, very slim for what you appear to need as well.

    I have similar setup with my ATO - its 25l and I added a very simple solenoid valve to it and plugged it into a wifi plug. My ato now automatically fills every sunday with a scheduled on/off. I have a float valve in container so it cant overfill, i just replaced the manual valve with solenoid. Havent thought about top off in 4 years, minus tds checks and rodi filter changes. Highly recommend

    Have you looked at Osmotics for a water container? I think they have some tower tanks. They have a 105 litre tank that is 30cm x 50cm and 75 cm high, or a 60 litre that is 25cm x 35cm and 85 cm high.

    Great tank. I’ve got the Nyos reactor. Great bit of kit but I seem to get some gfo out through the bottom when I power it off. Not sure if I’m doing it right but there isn’t much to get wrong !!

    I took my slide out panel off. It takes up a ton of room by itself, so if you don't really want it, you can get some room back which is a pro to me.

    Another interesting video on the new tank! Did you seed the rocks to make sure there was no possible phosphate leech, or did you do it to reduce cycling?

    • @ReefDork
      @ReefDork  Месяц назад

      Just for seeding - it might have got rid of some phosphate too but I'd still expect a spike based on my previous experiences...

    Good to see the updates on the tank. I’m thinking about a Nyos reactor so would love a long term review. Have you tried GFO and carbon at the same time and feel it works well with both?

    • @ReefDork
      @ReefDork  Месяц назад

      No, just gfo - I don't find carbon in a reactor makes much difference except that it seems to get to work a couple of hours quicker

    Wouldnt 2*300w heaters be better than 1*600w as the chance of both failing at same time is almost zero so it may cool but not go cold

    Can your contactless heater go in your overflow box ( if its going to always be submerged in there?)

    A review on the Nyos Torq would be great! Regardless the tank looks great! I am very jealous! I'd love to get a bigger tank, the reefer 250 is just right for where I'm living at the moment but will definitely go bigger when I move :-)

    Did you use the uk plug adapter for the dj switch? Or did you change all the plugs? I found all my plugs to be fused and impossible to open. Only way to add a new one was to cut the wires.
