Question: has anyone plumbed a pool filter (DE) into their system? I have my plan I’d like to run by an experienced set of eyes.

no but it has been at the very top of my head. I believe that larger systems like boston aquarium uses this type of filtration.

Diatomaceous Earth filters are one of the very best forms of mechanical filtration. Since they filter down to the range of 1-2 microns they can easily remove parasites such as ick and velvet (even bacteria) from the water column, but they are hard to implement and operate.

Yeah. I first used a Vortex to address ich and have wanted to do it since. It is insane how clear it makes the water…. (and anecdotally the ich never returned)

No one make fun of those of us in the south, but 11 is pretty cold here, especially considering my tanks are in my garage. Gonna have to throw in some extra heaters in the tank

So it's true...the bicep came before the egg.
It is so rare to catch you slip… I was excited but still knew I had to hustle to beat you to your own punch; I didn’t have time to find the best right arm :)

Question - was going to mount the Qunata power bricks on the wall (drywall) but realize they’re super hot when they’re on. Would that no be a fire hazard up against the drywall or am I missing something. Or should I get some mounts 3d printed

I spoke to Luca just about that when I hung up my Quanta. He said to hang them dangling and with some kind of space so that air can pass through. I have a small comp fan I can run if I want to

wouldnt worry about it. It should be ul adn ce certified which means that if it does start a fire you can sue the hell out of quanta.

or this

Season 2 Shut Up GIF by Paramount+


During shipping we are going to run 2 things


1) we will do an unboxing contest for a $250 Gift card.

The rules are simple you need to do a video unboxing of the corals. This video will become part of a video serios testimonial on our website. In order to enter the video has to be a utube video. Has to state your name and show your face at the beginning. You will basically show a video of the unboxing receiving the corals in bags, the show them in your tank ect. Tag us here so we don’t miss it. Each entry will give you a chance at a win spin for the $250 gift card

2) we are doing a random sticker prize reveal. Every order will get a free sticker. and 5 lucky winners will have a number written on the sticker. It can be number 1-5. Whoever gets 1 will get prize 1 and be able to pick the prize 1st. and 2 gets 2nd ect all the way up to 5. So the winner will get a sticker with a number on it which will become your tank for picking one of the 5 prizes. As you get the sticker you need to tag us here and show your sticker number. We will reveal the prized later in this thread once all boxed are received.

Good luck everybody and we can’t wait to see what you get!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
