I have posted on here before but I wanted to give an update. I have been using a scrubber for a year. Started with a horizontal version and went vertical after problems with splashing and bubbles. The first pic is my scrubber now. Its a bit under powered with only 300 gallons/hour flow. Upgrading the pump this week. I am growing (rehabilitaing) tubeworms of all types and sizes. I buy the tube or coco worms when they are next to dead and dirt cheap. With in a couple weeks they are healthier and puttng on whorls of feathers. So cool. I will do a before and after on teh next one I get.
I scrape the glass panes once a week depending on how much i feed. My scrubber is not full speed so I take it easy now. I was going crazy feeding 4-6 cubes, crushed scallop and phytofeast but I was having to scrape more often. Now I feed one cube and dose a small amount of PF once a day to every other day. Oh and I feed a pinch of spectrum pellets when I get home every day. I only have a yellow tang, blk clown and a leopard wrasse at the moment.
Heres the tank :
I have said it before, but really. . . thanks santamonica!
