I get that part however, I don't want to build a scrubber with a 'reflector' that has direct exposure to the salt water. Salt water does not do nice things to aluminum. Even if it is washed on a...

I'm not sure if acrylic glue will react adversly to the mirror coating...for one acrylic glue actually melts the acrylic creating a weld (correct me if I'm wrong) if there is a layer of mirror flim...
You said it Floyd! And that's only 1/2 of it!
I apologize for the delay with my updates. My wife and I had triplets on the way…unfortunately we lost one at 26 weeks. She is in the hospital about 2 ½ hours away from home. So it has been quite...
Is there a site location we can see this cat's aquarium/subsystem photos? Not that I'm questioning any claim...actually...I support it. I just want to see the beauty of it myself, if it is what you...
Just the water, no motor. The axle is Delrin and man will it spin! Delrin to acrylic is slicker than snot on a glass door knob! An then lubricate it with water and WOW! You can almost make it turn...
I mentioned in a couple of my earlier posts that I had come up with a new idea for some old concepts. My plan was to coat the overflow lip and mesh tube with a special secret mystery rock layer that...
What size do you think would be best?
SM, what non-toxic reef safe epoxy are you using to adhere your Green-Grabber stuff to the box? Or...is that a secret as well?
I did read that earlier Garf however, gravel will not work in my intended application/design.
SM is it something that can be purchased at a crafts store like Michael's or Hobby Lobby? I can possibly narrow it down but if I go find something similar/comparable I'd like to be sure it wouldn't...
That was my thought. Just like bonding/gluing wood. Make the pieces larger than needed, then trim to size; table saw, edge routing and rabbeting etc...
Here is my thought: For bonding the mirror to...
What is the crystal like rock/material you refer to as 'Green Grabber' surface on your HOG1?
I agree. It would be alot of work, but it goes along with the rest of this system. I'm not trying to mass produce...just a one time design/build. If I get a few %...heck even a couple % in growth,...
I'm thinking about a double layer... .125" mirror adhered to .125" black, then rabbet the back pannel, side and top of pannels capped with .125" x .25" black strip.
1. that would prevent the mirror...
What kind of rock are you using to epoxy to the box?
How/why would it escape?
Great thanks gents! I'm on the tail end of a 150g build that I've been working on for 2 1/2yrs now. It will be quite the system when complete. To date I haven't seen quite anything like it. I...
What would the blue spectrum be?
Hey all, I'm new here. Thanks for all the advances you have made for the love of our hobby and the animals we love to keep. Please don't all frag me but I have a question, maybe I have missed it...
