Yeah your right, 4 bar it is then. I think I will go for the Aqua Medic 1000 external reactor. A bit pricey but no more so than a descent diffuser and less hassle cleaning weekly. Thanks for all the advise tho. Cheers Mark

Thanks for the reply. Being an UP branded reg which I presume is Chinese there are no bar readings on the dials only psi and kg/cm2. Cheers for the offer but alas I have the crappy ribbed Fluval hosing on my filter so not sure if I could get a proper connection. The bubbles seem fine, whilst...

Lights arrived today and there pretty good. Boyu 3 x 8watt T5 with 2 white and 1 atinic. Will change blue for a better bulb. Now heres the dilema, in a tank of only 8.8 gal I really cant justify the prices of some pressurised systems on such a small tank. Ive been looking at the Fluval mini 20...
