The one thing he says in the video I was watching was about having a plecostamus. Those are not very good algae eaters compared to what else you can get. If you want to get some algae eaters buy 1 otocinclus catfish. 2 can keep a 75 gallon tank clean without a problem, three and I had to give them algae pellets.I'm kind of hoping to set up my small system similar to the way that Herbin Legends has his. (youtube vids here) ..Basically a dual root zone set up in a very small space.
I forgot to attach the site that has the info on the worms, here it is, sorry for that!The P may be produced by the worms, according to this site, they produce a lot of Phosphates and Potash...of course, I defused explosives, not conducted soil nutrient tests so my opinion isn't scientific hahahah.
Yeah, I was a little concerned that the plants would be a bit smashed, but they have a decent amount of room on all sides for the lights to get to the bottom. After one night of operation it seems to be working really well.
looking great! i like the dog, nice additionHere is the updated bud porn
definitely curious about how the bell siphon is supposed to workHere is a video. I will go over the bell siphon later. Wife is calling now!
Here's a good video that demonstrates how it works. Not all bell siphons require the extra tubing / aspirin bottle, but they do require a little minor tweaking in order to get it set just right for your application.definitely curious about how the bell siphon is supposed to work
OH HOLY SHIT, that's awesome. That's kind like how it sounded it worked, but i couldnt visualize it. My god, I did my flood/drain system really poorly in the past lol I just an overflow 'nipple' back into the main and the pump input flush with the bottom of the tray, so when it turned off it fed back through the pump.
digging the videos, especially the VHS rip lolA little less elegant but it still works..
