2014年7月3日 · So I've been thinking about an automatic salt dispenser to mix my salt. i had this idea on paper but haven't had time to turn it into CAD but i came across a design identical to what i drew but this one was designed for something else. But for now ill …

2019年11月13日 · I'm planning on automating dispensing salt in the mixing station. From what I've read salt stored dry will inevitably clump up making dispensing it in dry form not practical. My idea to overcome this is mix salt with rodi in high concentration( ~4x regular) and use a pump to dispense it. I use redsea blue bucket.

2019年8月13日 · Top Unit is RODI water, fed via 5 Stage system. It drains via gravity into the lower unit. Holds 65 gallons of water. In the salt water container I have a very small pump with a piece of PVC and 'T' joint to move water from the bottom of the unit to the top for mixing.

2024年11月24日 · I have always used instant ocean. Since salt prices are climbing so much I'm moving to aquaforest reef salt. Reasons being 1- instant ocean is packaged to a lower salinity. So a 150g bucket makes 130g. 69$ IO for 200g. With proper salinity maybe 160g. 80 99$ 200g Afreef makes 200g. 2- mixing time 3- aquaforest is closer to parameters I want to ...

2024年11月24日 · Is anyone using the Sicce UltraZero Utility pump in their salt mixing containers. I am trying to figure out it this pump will help with both the mixing and allowing me to pump the mixed water from my garage to my tank. Bonus points if you can tell me if a python no spill and fill will connect to this pump and work for this exact usage.

2024年12月28日 · I add 800g of salt and point a powerhead at the bottom. I move the powerhead around partway through until there is no visible salt and then let it go a while longer. What I get comes out to about 1.04 according to my refractometer. The water is at the reference temperature and the refractometer reads 0 on the distilled water.

2021年10月9日 · I used the Hanna low range phosphate checker, it's for marine and fresh. You are correct the ultra low range is only for salt water. Yes the 5 gallon jugs normally have a small amount of calcium and other trace elements added to them but even in my basically fowlr tank it was never enough to cause any parameters to go out of walk.

2020年9月25日 · It fills a countertop dispenser for drinking and cooking and a line is split off to a 65 gallon pickle barrel on the porch that has a float valve. The only thing that really takes space are the fresh and saltwater barrels.

2021年5月5日 · I have decided to design an automatic water change system utilizing Peltier elements for temperature correction of incoming water. I am having trouble finding a material that is reef safe to use as a cooling block. I know that most normally used materials (aluminum, copper, etc.) corrode in salt water and cause all sorts of problems.
