aquakevem Posted June 4, 2015 Author Share Posted June 4, 2015 have any idea of the coverage area on it? I can make a inquiry to find out for you, though. I am not sure where you may find this fixture for sell. However, upgrading to one of the other 5 LED boards will be roughly $70. Link to comment
JR! Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I ask because a was going to have a place in my sump for frags and thought that might work well Link to comment
Ancelot Posted June 19, 2015 Share Posted June 19, 2015 Hey dude! Amazing build! Just a quick question - you mentioned a Shorai LFX14A2-BS12 lithium iron 14Ah battery for your return pump? How does everything gel together? Able to show us? Link to comment

How does everything gel together? Able to show us? Hey! I'll update post #154 when I have everything connected. Though, you'll need a Tunze safety connecter 6105.5 that will switch to a alternate power source. More info. thttp://tunzeusa.com/best-battery-backup-in-the-business/ Link to comment

aquakevem Posted November 4, 2015 Author Share Posted November 4, 2015 Nothing too exciting from the past couple of months, but upgrades and new gadgets. Acquired a Apple Airport Express to function as a wireless bridge for my GHL ProfiLux 3.1T Aquarium Computer Upgraded Ecotech VorTech MP40wES driver to Quiet Drive... What am i supposed to do with the original MP40wES driver and housing??? ATO function came via a firmware update for my GHL Doser 2, which there is a function for automatic water change too. Ecotech Radion XR30w Pro and XR15w Pro needs to be programmed -Debating on getting a ReefLink but that'll be more junk to fit inside of my stand. Link to comment
aquakevem Posted November 6, 2015 Author Share Posted November 6, 2015 Tonight's project, fabricating a tray to house a 120mm fan for evaporative cooling.Attachment will be made by a magnet of some kind.Mounted above the waterline of my return section, sump. Link to comment
HarryPotter Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 You don't have to put the ReefLink in your stand, it can go pretty far away Link to comment
aquakevem Posted November 6, 2015 Author Share Posted November 6, 2015 You don't have to put the ReefLink in your stand, it can go pretty far away Hmm..Cool! I had assumed that the ReefLink wasn't a wireless bridge. Plugging in the USB cable for programming got old real fast. Link to comment
HarryPotter Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Hmm..Cool! I had assumed that the ReefLink wasn't a wireless bridge. Plugging in the USB cable for programming got old real fast. ReefLink is totally wireless! For the first time setup you plug the USB from the ReefLink to your laptop. After that the only cable is the power plug! Link to comment
