I have 3 Dragon Strand enclosures. 2 Medium Atriums and 1 Large Clearside Atrium. My only complaint is a better latch system for the doors would make them perfect. I have a few that have either popped off or the black plastic latch snapped. On those I have replaced with velcro straps and is...
Im interested to see how often you have to refill the humidifier, and any other maintenance to it. I know with water sitting in them for a while deposits can form.
The feed water would need to be treated before going into the RODI system, if not even if the system could remove the sulfur you would go thru filters and membranes extremely quick.
So this is what system I have, it adds the DI Resin as the 4th stage. The 75 gallon per day version is $150. As mentioned earlier I added the booster pump because of low pressure, float switch kit, pressure gauge, and a dual inline TDS meter (how I measure the water quality going in and out of...
I am on a well. It's been about 12 years since we moved in and had the water tested but at the time we had a whole house filter system installed. I do remember we had a lot of iron in our water. I've been using the RODI system for at least 9 years, I'd have to look back a pictures to see...
I use a Bulk Reef RODI, a 75 gallon a day system. You want the water pressure to be around 50-75 psi. If it's lower your efficiency will not be as good. My water pressure was around 35 so I did add on a booster pump. I actually use this system for two purposes, 1 - my reef tank and also my...
I have the output of mine teed off. One cage is in the room above where the system is about 12' up from pump to the first nozzle (cage has 2 nozzles and a drip line), and about 10' horizontal. The other cage it is teed off to is in the next room over so about the same height but about 30' of...
I have two Dragonstrand setups using their drainage tray. I have a small bulkhead I installed in the tray that empties into a bucket in each enclosure's stand. On average I dump the bucket every 5 days or so. I mist 6 times a day for 5 minutes each session, Mist King system. One cage has a...
As mentioned above you can find some good T5 fixtures on the Reef Sites and also their sponsors. The Tek 4 bulb 36" fixture can be had at around $250, this has two power cords (2 bulbs on each) and would require times. Something along the lines of the ATI fixtures mentioned also come in a...
On my Large Atrium I am running a 4 bulb Aquatic Life T5 fixture (individual reflectors) and on my Medium Atrium I am using a Quad Fixture from LightYourReptiles, to me it appears that most fixtures from them are re-branded Oddysea,(by the casing and the control unit on the fixture). These have...
Here is a picture of the valve. So the white tube is the feed from the basement, it's tee'd to go to the valve in the picture and the other out is to the misting heads. The white valve with the blue handle is just so I can close it off completely without touching the needle valve, I have...
