Chibils Jr Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 JMB - how are you liking the Xiaomi Yi action cam? Recommended? Want something that can multi task with decent pics/video but also go to remote locations/underwater (with the waterproof case) without being bulky or expensive. Thought I'd ask you since your thread is what turned me on to this camera. Link to comment

Thought I'd ask you since your thread is what turned me on to this camera. I haven't used it in a little while, but it does a pretty great job. Stills from it are decent, nothing to write home about, but the Sony sensor does good enough, especially for a $100 camera There is actually now a successor to the Yi that does 4K video, it is much more expensive, though, at $250, though it does have a touchscreen on it instead of just the button for power and activation Link to comment
Chibils Jr Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I liked that I could buy the camera and a water proof case for under $100. ? Something tiny and easy to use. Think I'll do it. Thanks Benny. Love the direction of the tank. That's a lot of gorgs, absolutely inspired by next tank. ? Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted July 18, 2016 Author Share Posted July 18, 2016 tank is leaking at one of the bulkheads. yay. Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted July 21, 2016 Author Share Posted July 21, 2016 Picking up the new tank tomorrow. Acquasole 60 tank and stand, IceCap 15 sump coming next week. Will not be able to use this new light I JUST finished, but oh well. I may or may not have a couple of Ethereal here to play with... Link to comment
jedimasterben Posted July 22, 2016 Author Share Posted July 22, 2016 God, this tank is a friggin beast. The glass is thicker than on my old 80g, and it weighs nearly as much. The stand doesn't come with a bottom. Wtf. It is nice though, extremely thick and sturdy. I also got both Ethereal and the wifi controller connected and working in tandem. They're really sleek and the light seems pretty pleasing, though I've not yet got them over coral lol. I also got a bottle of some new stuff from Fauna Marin that is SO cool. Can't talk any about it though. Link to comment

gus6464 Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 Who cares about the light, we wanna see the tank. It's like an Italian Elos no? Thought the system already came with a sump? Link to comment

Thought the system already came with a sump?In due time As I was told, Elos is no longer producing their 'old' line of tanks and has chosen a new manufacturer to buy their diamond line from. Elos also did not actually own the design for the tank or stand, so the previous manufacturer is now selling them under the Acquasole name, but for less since they don't have the Elos name. They only come tank and stand, and for some reason the stands don't have a bottom, which is kind of odd. Link to comment

jedimasterben Posted July 22, 2016 Author Share Posted July 22, 2016 How do you put the sump in with no bottom? I have no clue. What I'm going to do is get a 2x2 piece of plywood from Home Depot, cut it to fit,and then top it with a shower liberty at I'll silicone or something to the inside of the stand. Oh then if that's the case the pricing is kind of steep for what it is.Well they're cheaper than the Elos branded tanks were, so at least there is that Link to comment

I ordered a rimless custom tank from Visio a while back and was super impressed with the quality. The glass is super thick as well for only a 24x24x16. Link to comment
