Sabbaths Hogs exposed

[sabbath]

I have 2 Hog.5 UAS's that are struggling along IMO. I have modified them with larger holes and have the screen pretty flat.

This one started 10 weeks 2 days ago and this is after 12 days from a cleaning.



Here it is after the cleaning.



Here is the second one that started 7 weeks 4 days ago. This is before the cleaning at 14 days.



What do you guys think? I still have the same amount of algae in the display. I thought that I would have done more my now.

Ah... both are burning.

If you have the unit down in the water (which gets the most water flow), then reduce hours by 2.

They are both at the bottom of a 12" high tank. I have the lights running 4hrs on 2hrs off then 4hrs again once per day. What is your thoughts? Do 2 x 3hrs on's?

Total of 6 hours per day, anytime you want to run them. You are currently running 16 hours.

I was running a total of "8 hrs" a day with 2 shifts. I just raised them to 1" from the top. They where 4" from the top before.

I will just set the time now to 6 hrs straight to keep it easy.
Thanks

Note; I'm running both of these with a Luft pump on max.

Here is info on it.
The Luft Pump delivers 7.0 psi against water pressure, making it an excellent choice for ponds. Its heavy rubber diaphragm cannot be damaged by back pressure; this means if an airstone has not been maintained, the diaphragm won't be damaged. The adjustable rheostat increases air flow by regulating electricity, not by blocking air flow, allowing more efficient, economical performance.

For aquariums up to 90 gallons.
Can be used with multiple valves or T-connectors for multiple devices.
Quiet operation. Includes replaceable airline filters and airline clamp.
Dimensions: 6.75” x 3.5” x 3”
7.0 PSI
4.0 L/Hr

Is this Okay in you opinions.

[SantaMonica]

Is that 4.0 LPM ?

[sabbath]

Yep.

[SantaMonica]

Well you only need up to 1 LPM for one unit, so I'm sure 4 is enough for two.

The second unit does not seem to bad... should fill in shortly. Clean one each week.

Great Thanks.
