evilc66 Posted April 3, 2009 Author Share Posted April 3, 2009 Pico goodies are updated here. This is what I used to temporarily light up the tank (see above). Goodies for Sunpod owners should be anounced later this weekend if all goes to plan. Oh, and the tank is cycling. Getting some more rock today, so I will update pictures a little later.

danktank Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 ouch well its good to hear that the cycle is doin its thang Link to comment
evilc66 Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 Finally got the frag tank to stop bubbling. Ended up installing 3/4" loc-line ball valves on the outputs into the tank and tweaked the flow till the bubbles stopped. Had to remove the top plate from the overflow to submerge the bulkhead. Took a little while to get it right, but it's all good now. Hopefully the evaporation will go down now that the bubbles have stopped. Link to comment

Dice_cage Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Thanks. I'll try and get some new pictures of the aquascape later today. You talked about something for Sunpod owners, will you show it here? I'm kind of interested... Link to comment
Carinya Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 We def. need some new pics! Link to comment
evilc66 Posted April 12, 2009 Author Share Posted April 12, 2009 You talked about something for Sunpod owners, will you show it here? I'm kind of interested... I might tease a little here, but the main thread will be in the lighting forum. I'm hoping to get that up today if I can finish the driver. We def. need some new pics! Finishing up some yard work, then pictures. Link to comment
evilc66 Posted April 13, 2009 Author Share Posted April 13, 2009 Ok, a few pictures. Still running the 6W light, so lighting isn't great, but somewhat dramatic. You can see the additional rock that was added on the right compared to the original FTS. I'm still up in the air about adding more to the left. Shot down the tank from the right. Link to comment
danktank Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 WOW! are you gonna keep the 6W as a moon light or no? Link to comment
evilc66 Posted April 13, 2009 Author Share Posted April 13, 2009 Dunno. Hadn't planned on it originally, but after seeing the effect, it might stay. Link to comment
danktank Posted April 13, 2009 Share Posted April 13, 2009 yea, it looks really nice, maybe raise it a little so its a little less bright. Jm2c Link to comment
evilc66 Posted April 15, 2009 Author Share Posted April 15, 2009 Getting a little more excited now. More algae in the frag tank, and hydroids EVERYWHERE in the display. Seriously, there are thousands on the glass. They just popped up overnight! Things are progressing nicely. Link to comment
Gerber77 Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 That FTS looks awesome Evil, keep it up Link to comment
