IceCap Algae Scrubbers: We Made Improvements Based on Your Feedback
CoralVue Aquarium Products posted a topic in CoralVue
Product Link: https://www.coralvue.com/icecap-turf-scrubber These updated units are already on the market and on retailer shelves (pricing unchanged), but we wanted to take a moment to share some of the changes that have been made to the IceCap Algae Turf Scrubbers because a lot of the inspiration came from the feedback of early adopters on forums like NR. We value the opinions of all hobbyists and sincerely appreciate everyone who cared enough to share their thoughts. You've really helped us to build a better product! If there are any early adopters reading this that have experienced an issue with your scrubber, we invite you to contact us at support@coralvue.com so we can help you out!Some of the changes we've made include: The spray bar is slotted now (rather than a bunch of small holes) which helps water flow evenly down the mesh screen. A spray bar cover was added to prevent algae from growing in the drain holes and clogging. Leak guards were added on the sides so no salt creep comes out of the spray bar. Red LEDs were added to the lights for better hair algae growth. Thumb-locking screws were added to lock the water inlet pipe in position. Here are some quick photos that show these changes: -

FIRST LOOK: Algae Scrubber-Friendly Sump from IceCap!
CoralVue Aquarium Products posted a topic in CoralVue
Here are some pictures of an algae-scrubber friendly sump design that IceCap is developing. What do you think? We have 3 different sized algae scrubbers. Should we make different sized sumps to accommodate each of them? Thank you in advance for your feedback! -

So I built a small tank, the display outflow leads to the scrubber (which is removable) and it is a bit loud. Does anyone have any suggestions on shutting it up? lol. Flow rate of 160 gph between 2 3/4" unrestricted bulkhead fittings with 3/4" loc-line ending in 90° loc-line that top feeds into a modified 1.25" pvc tube that contains the scrubber. Many thanks, pics to come.

Hello everyone, I would like to ask about a brown algae that grew on my algae scrubber. The one on the picture is one week production of algae from my scrubber. Does anybody know when will it turn green?

I just want to share my DIY algae scrubber. Algae growth in 2 days using a 12w par38 led light. I took the baffle from my sump and made it as a waterfall slide style scrubber. Meah can be removed by sliding it up.

Hello guys, these questions are for those who uses algae scrubber for years now. can an algae scrubber work if its your only filtration method? I'm thinking of setting up a new tank with an algae scrubber as its main filtration system beside mechanical filtration and live rocks only. Would that work? the setup will be.. 55 gallon reef tank 20 gallon sump with LR, mech filter, and 12"x 16" algae scrubber. circulation pump heater no skimmer, no reactors. any idea if this will work? thanks a bunch

Hello, I was thinking about an algae scrubber. Does anybody know if it really works on reducing phos and Nitrates? I have a 40 gallon reef tank with a 10 gallon diy sump. Does anybody here uses algae scrubber? thanks,
