    Algae has best growth and filtering cycle at 4 hours peak. Then goes down. After it gets some rest it can start cycle again . There was topic on that week or few ago. Search for it for more detail.

    Anything you can put there.

    Or just put the screen very near the glass.

    hi all
    previously my uas getting better day by day,
    until about 1 week ago.
    when i want to clean up my uas,there's no algae on that! they all die

    then i check all supporting components of my uas
    and I found my aerator pump is damaged


    so i replaced it with a new one.
    the new one produce more bubbles than before.

    my " plastic shield" (to block bubble splash out and cause salt creep) cant hold the bubble anymore.

    so i decide to make a new shield from former mineral water bottle.




    Can I put it like that?
    is the shield should be placed exactly in the surface of the water, or can as I put it now(slightly above the surface of the water)?

    please help me solve this.

    sorry if my English is not good, or sounds weird
    if you are not clear with my words, tell me. I will make it clearer

    Even though I've put it in the best, still current evaporation is greater than when I was not using the aerator pump.

    Is it normal?
