I was taking the trash out to recycle the milk bottles we have here in oz and it hit me. I can use these.
So the idea was spawned. milk bottle uas V1.0
Its a 2L plastic clear/opaque milk...
nice!!
noice!!
Love how you have a box that sits inside a bracket holding your lights..
My pump could be double maybe even triple the out put imo, It is very quiet (happy) once the cabinet door is closed it is on par of the noise from the bubbles bursting, I would assume that double the...
Wasnt expecting you to jump into the tank... very cool!!
What would benifit from the air injection the most? Air direct to the roots or the leaf? and what part is actually taking up the nutrients?
The reason I say this is if you could run the bubbles up...

maybe these could be custom made
micro bubbles could be an issue..
oh and I just saw the post from sm in the top thread about air stones etc after I wrote in this thread..
reason I also say this as hints have been thats it could be really low cost, we should have things laying around already to make it.. If you have been around tanks long enough most folks have air...
underwater with air bubbles is my guess.. bubbles have the flow, even spread over screen, algae will have air from bubbles. water possible moving in an upwards direction. still flat so light can...
agree on that SM its a pain in da but weeding through topics you/I/us dont want to read.....
SM, you really be trying to get them to come back to this site with what ever you post...forget RC after that, the more traffic here the better off you will be.. would RC permit that? or would their...
yeah so simple! i always try n bash them off... my mandarin is gonna be a budda!!
oh and do you know the light Im refering too? can I wire them together? and any idea how to do it?
I think the out come is yes it can grow under water but to get the max benifit out of it the curtain of water is the best to do so??
Cheers for the heads up... I know it should be set up properly. Ill get there soon.
Any ideas on why my skimmer is going off tho? I get a massive stiff foam cloud puffing at the top. I thought...
Hi thought I would share what is happening to my dodgy setup atm
Ive had a screen rolling over a baffle for some time now maybe about 4 months not really working tried variuos cheap lights I had...
Ive just upgraded to radions love them as I also use mp40wes that talk to each other bit expensive tho but you also get the tech that comes with it get someamazing colours etc.. I used to run china...
HI SM
Got any facts on what this new baby of yours will be able to do flow rates size of unit how big a water volume it will filter etc??
Ive been skulking on here for a few weeks again and...
any new pics? what is your tank up too? how are the leds?
hey there any updates? how is the design going? any new pics of growth you can post?
Cheers
I guess if mine are 45w then we will find out.
Could you post what dimensions your box is expecially how wide, really want to know the distance of one side of the canvas to the inside of the...
great thanks for that, maybe putting them further out? Id be interested to see how far they could be set back. maybe having lower wattage at the distance you have might be ok too?
any one with an...
Also you said you wouldnt recommed them (led) they seem to be doing the job, do you still feel the same?
Do you think the distance from the screen is still a huge deal? can the panel be moved...
wow love it!
Do you think your scrubber could be wider and taller? and if so by how far do you think?
The led looks like it has good spread on the sides as the growth looks pretty good on all...
you got the aroura lights in your shed man
Hi guys its been awhile since I was last on here, back on the mission agian Im pretty sure I can get what ever spec i need made in the quad band led just looking at some of the charts for the...
Great Research!!! :D
Hey Rygh what threads can you point me to them? on this site?
looking great!! whats your po4 etc?
Nice build making me think of some more ideas for a in hood set up. altho not sure I could get enough light to it. worth a crack.
how could you do the u bend with square?
seems right there is a thread of where a guy (sorry dont know your name) who used a venturi on the scrubber to suck in air and has found good results where there is a "foam" on the screen.
interesting about the light colour as one of your post suggests that the white panel seemed to have better growth. Is this stiil the case? do you think your wattage is enough could you use more, say...
I know its not led but I thought this was interesting.

So would a one sided screen in those dimentions work for a tank of say 300L? or would it need to be bigger?
Then what wattage would we need? Ive seen 15w to aobut 25W in the flat panel style.
...
Any links to this side glow led fiber optic cable??
pluss your time making them thats at least $50 p/h lol
Cost to my door was $109au, $94us something like that pretty close to it anyway this was the best I could come up with, Others were the same price for 37w and a 45w, the diffrent lights stay the same...
GREAT INFO!!
based on what your saying which one do you think I should go for?
Its all abit confusing to me. I kind of understand but not really lol.
based on the graphs blue seems to be...
email was sent to me... my quest continues to find out what band of red we really need as this email states its for flowering and fruiting. It seems we can find out heaps of what the algea needs to...
Hey kansas
How are the screens going? Im still tossing up the Idea of red blue. Can you post some results/pics after the last week of growth still having better luck with the all white?
Were...
This is really taking fish keeping to a new level...... I like
just a thought with red and blue, is it true that blue is only needed if you are trying to flower or fruit a plant so dose that mean...

Any chance you could post a photo of the screen only with 7days growth please?
I know this isnt led but I came across this what do you think? I only have a small space. I have spoken the rep of...

Hi
Im really intrested is seeing what measurments all the diffrent screens are getting hit with.
The reason I would like a discussion is that I want to use Led grow lights and as we are trying to...
