Nice! can you post a video I am making a DIY upflow and would love to hear the difference. :D
cool setup! but dont you think the ATS would the trick with out the "moving bed" ( 1st i have heard of that)
any way cool setup!!
thats a lot of bubble power! HA
yeah i'll just use silicone then...
nice! do you plan on taking the other filters out and just using the drops?
are the leds underwater?
keep us posted...
so you think I would need 2 outlets for the scrubber? plumbed together in to 1 air line tube going to the ATS or two airline tubes going in the ATS?
alos was wondering about just coating the magnets...
Has anyone used the Danner Aqua Supreme AP-8 Aquarium Air Pump, 7-watt?
was thinking it might be a good idea as it controllable and has 4 outlets.
I want to try my hand at a pod growing station ...
yeah thanks what i was thinking after realizing it quit small GPH...
I think I know what you mean but got a photo?
I was thinking of using a TOMs aqua lifter for the bubbles is there a better quitter one out there?
thanks SM for all the help :D
yeah I tested a small amount of Jb weld then added the CC I think it gonna work great!!
Ok now on to the bubbles. if i remember right the best way to do it is cut along the air tubing ( in the...
Hey Sm I have a tube of JB water weld I was thinking I would press a thin layer on the plastic case then add the crushed coral.
next question is there a difference running a upflow vertical or...
ok I'll see if I can find it. if not I am sure amazon has it.
I still need to silicone the magnets on the wet side correct?
OK got side tracked trying to hunt down another 40br....drilling sucks man.
so your saying just glue the metal plate to the case and heat will escape better that way? I thought it was a good idea...
sweet I can do that. should I take the ruffed up screen out and just glue crushed coral to case?
so here is my LED side of my Up flow ATS the heat sink is a pice of electoral box plate with to washers to give some air flow behind it. I do have room for a 3rd or 4th LED.
can't seam to attach the...
Oh and I do have a bottle of ammonia + some BRS dry rock form what i hear it leaks No4
and if anyone is reading this use a drill with a cord or a good cordless the one I use i think was just not...
OK looked through my fish box of goodies and I do have the mean well LPC 35-700 from when I was gonna make a H2o fall scrubber for my 75.
it will push 3 to 15 leds @ 700 ma.
so the question is...
well shit I cracked my tank trying to drill it. :( boooo
so until I decided about a replacement. I am gonna get my DIY upflow ATS working.
what do you think about setting it up in the sump for a...
OK thanks SM I might have one around need to look through my fish goodies boxes to see.
Oh man that sucks I thought i got the right driver..booo started an upflow ATS build about a year ago. was nice and small to.
so what driver do you guys recommend?
So if I run carbon what have you guys found is the best way?
filter reactor
HOB filter
or just a bag of carbon in a DIY reactor of sorts fed from a T off overflow?
Hey Sm,
yeah the cree LEDs are the 3watts each. so you think i should still add a 3rd?
I believe the highest my driver can push is 350 ma if I remember right. yeah I just check it, it's the moon...
Hey Guys,
I have been out of the reefing game for about 2 years now. but I have a place where I can have another tank. so I decided on a 40/40 instead of setting my 75 back up. this way when I move...
So I am setting up a 40Br DT/sump going all ATS..
I was wondering how often i should run carbon? I dont wain yellow water but don"t supper clear water where the is no nutrients either...
it is...
beautiful tank love the scape of the 75 ::)

yeah I was thinking the bars would be nice just hope they hold it...
almost done with my ATS build just need to glue the air line tubing in and connect the driver.
will ad some photos once I...
so with the magnets you guys think the N48 1"X 1/4" would do the trick? ...
so I officially started my build yesterday....
was trying to find a source for black glass but at last could not find pure black, so I went with a dark gray then found some very nice stand glass to...
so I know you said you don't like the bubble noise...but if you have 2 HOG style ATS you could clean them alternating thus you would always have one full grow scrubbing the tank...
i am sure you...
wow sorry for all the typos in the above post....
humm so turn over rate does not matter then...that is interesting. guess I will go with 3 to 5 X turn over rate then.
i was thinking of having...
^ thanks SM i am getting closer to starting the built! :)
got the tank and will be building the AIO baffle tomorrow of the next...one question you guys might and insightful feedback what would ...
ah thanks guys!
what is best to coat the magnets with epoxy or silicone or is there something better?
also what strength og magnets of hold through a 40br glass think it 1/4" but not sure?
so any one have suggestion for magnets to hold the HOG style UAS in place?
think 4 rare earth magnets would do the trick? or would that be to strong and cause problems wothother stuff in the ALL IN...
thanks SM I was hoping you would chime in here...
good call on the quartz. dam its snowing here now could have just gone and found some crushed it up. maybe i'll will still try.
any chance i...
ok so for this project I am in the process of making an all in one 40 breeder.
the tanks only filtration will be biological. live rock sand and of course ATS.
thinking about doing the UAS style...
love it!
how about an update?
so what kind of mods did u do to get it supper quite?
hey SM do you think the .5 cube hog will be to much for a 40 br?
I wounder what is quieter in an all in one set up a hog style or water fall ?
wow that looks great... what size of tank is it?
so your running a skimmer along with your ATS how is that working out for ya? i have been thinking upflow vs waterfall for this build...why did u go...
yes this counts! that is what I am thinking of doing with a 40br make a chamber like an all in one with the heater small return pump ATS a a cpl probes form the controller...
would u post some pics...
there must be some one out there running a sumpless ATS... in a nano maybe??
thinking of setting up a small tank 20-40 gal space is very limited so was thinking of going with a in DT ATS...something like a hog 5 in a fake over flow chamber or partition.

anyone have...
^ yeah I just think i might have to much flow still. did you have a change to watch the video? how far from the holes is your loop? i think if I have a bit slower flow I would be better. If I have...
OK I made the holes bigger went from 3/16 to 7/16" I think it helped but not 100% satisfied.
here the video I made to get your feedback:...
^ yeah that's the thread I linked to a few post ago. I think i might need to widen my hole there are 3/16" and it's pretty loud.
yeah I just don't have the tools to cut the slot. :( wanna make one for me :) lol
hummmmm....here is a quick video of my 1st test run I think the holes are to small as I was getting alot of spray so I added a bag. it's pretty noisy :( thinking about making bigger holes.
thoughts?...
here is a pic of the PVC pipe with the holes drilled in. there not 100% straight but I was thinking the loop along with the black garbage bag cover would help it out......
here is the link to a thread on here all about drilling the PVC instead on the cut.
