Here are a few pics of my growth in a two week period. I have been fighting a algae outbreak in my reef tank. I have really stepped up my maintenance and added the UAS. I perform WC's every two weeks...

My tank is almost one year mature now. It's a 125 gal tank. I started running my UAS a little over a month ago. The screen fills in nicely in about a week now and needs cleaning. I also grow chaeto...

IKR!?!? It's crazy how it's growing now. Maybe it'll start out competing the algae in my tank.

Holy crap what a difference some time makes!!!!! This thing is growing algae like crazy!!! These pics are 7 days after I scraped the screen clean and gave a quick rinse in the sink. Algae is still...

Thanks for all your information. You've been great.

It doesn't affect the LED's being encapsulated in clear silicone? Forgive my ignorance. I've never tried anything like this.

I don't understand how you installed the lights. On page 2 you posted a sketch that says any type of plastic box? Also, do you actually fill the box with silicone or just seal the edges?

Cool. Thanks!

This is mine so far. About a week old.

What about this one? My screen seems to be turning light brown but I'm at just one week.

I'll get some more pics in a couple of days. I'm tied up with work right now and traveling.

I'm calling this day 7, although that's really not the case. On day 5 I took it out and made a few modifications. Whatever had started probably died because it was out of the water several...

Lol!!! I like the magic!

There is definitely some growth starting this morning. I removed the outside piece (light side) and watched a few minutes with a flashlight. I decided to make my holes slightly larger to help...

Thanks for the replies so far. There is definitely air escaping through the top and I have several 1/8" holes across the bottom and sides. There are nutrients in my tank for sure. My cheato in the...

Ok. I'll chill and check it in a couple of days. Thanks.

Maybe I need to rough the screen up some more?

Ok. Thanks

I need help posting pics and vids. I went with 4 of the LED's from Santa Monica's web page with his drivers. My screen is about 4-1/2 x 6. My air pump is a Fusion Q2. The flow looks good but I don't...

I'm having trouble finding this parts section. All I see are the units for sale and one kit for a HOG.5. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong place?
I'm still reading, but I don't understand how to seal...

Thanks for the reply! Shopping cart site? Is that the Santa Monica Filtration site? I'm looking now.

Lol! I gotcha. Thx

Thanks Floyd! If I understand the e-mail from Rapid correctly, it's the moonlight driver that drives them at 350mA. The LPC-35-700 will drive them at 750mA but requires at least 3 of the 660nm LED's....

Is this the correct forum to ask questions? Questions such as:
1) Is it ok to use 4 of the Philips Rebel 660nm using the HOG design with the microwaveable trays (or something similar)?
2) Do I use...
