Here it is clean and start of new day 1.

Awesome. Thanks. Should I keep the light at 22 hours per day?

Well here is 1 week of growth on 22 hours. Looks like a lot of cyano or something else. Almost all red and definitely nasty looking.

Do you still heave this blue ribbon eel?

Cool. I'll keep watching it, but I think it is working. How longer before it turns green?

We'll I've been doing 22 hours a day. I am now getting algae growth but it is all brown. Should it be all green?

Ok. Should I leave the lights on for 22 hours a day? I have no problem being patient for the next 2-4 weeks. Right now I'm sitting at .10 phosphates and 0 nitrates. As background I had a huge algea...

I will grab some more pictures when I get home. I actually have the scrubber under the overflow output from my external skimmer. So it's probably just as much flow as my overflow, but with thousands...

What should the light cycle be with the t-shirt filter for one month? My tank is low nutrients/high nuisance algae. I have an overflow fed scrubber like the mix2. I have 52 watts total. I have the...

Does anyone have any pictures of their MIX2 set up and running?

How deep should the water be in a the MIX2 type without the float? Should the water drain out the bottom immediately or should there be at least 2" of water in the unit that drains slower?

No black it is. Is this the right kind?

Is it ok to use black roughed up plastic canvas or does it have to be white canvas. I just tried to make a float scrubber with hydraulic cement and crushed live rock which was an epic fail. I'm going...

Very good point and big duh on my part. Are there issue of doing one MIX2 for now and having the other overflow from my tank just going straight into the sump? Just threw my first two attempts out.

Yeah, I'm not liking the look right now. I think they will be in the trash by the end of the night. Do you make a MIX1 or MIX1.5? :)

Thanks. Just attempted to make two out of pond baskets using hydraulic cement and crushed live rock. Not looking very pretty right now. We'll see how it looks when it dries and I add the string. Do...

So my water volume is 200 gallons (I know that doesn't matter), but I feed a little less than 2 cubes a day. My tank drains to my basement sump via 2 pipes and into two filter socks. I was going to...
