Hi, got if on full. I used to hear the hum of the aquamedic in my bedroom. I can't hear this one. I really like the idea of LEDs. So some pics of how you set them up, wiring etc would really be useful. My lfs has a shoal of Altums (ferrybridge aquatics). Look awesome. Post some pics of your...

Hi, how's it going. Need an update on your tank. I got the 9000. All set up and running. Sounds like a PC fan running. Lot higher pitch than other pumps. Much quieter to say it's over two times more powerful. The control is pretty nifty too. Hope u got yours up n running

Hi, thx for reply. I just put my order in for one. What fittings does it come with? I have 1" return hard pipe at the moment. Do I need to get any connectors? Looking good by the way .

Hi, have you had your pump running yet? I have just bought a compact 5000 to upgrade from an aquamedic 3500 but the eheim is quite a bit noisier. Was wondering how the jecod sounded. Thx

Hi, really liking your build. Can you post some pics of your light build. I have a similar size tank with a sump etc and like the idea of moving to LEDs.

Had a jiggle, a poke and a shufty of a few bits.

We have another sofa opposite. Where I get to sit. Anubias are on the left. They are pretty big tho. Cheers

Some in situ shots, takes today. Please excuse the messy sofa.

Yes there is that. I use my wife or kids to help out. Though it sometimes is frustrating when they shout through. "Move that one, over there." And of course I have no idea which one, or where, there is. And catching a fish is great fun!

Many thanks for your comments. I will have to get my slr out and do some proper full tank shots. I am still struggling to find an effective co2 reactor. I currently use a 2lt coke bottle with bio balls in the sump. It drops the ph from 7.4 to 6.6 and keeps it there. But I would like something...

Hmm. The substrate is akadama. I use 4 t5 tubes for 7 hours a day on timers. Co2 comes on 2 hours before lights on and off 1 hour before lights off. I use a ph controller to manage the co2 which is a holdover from the marines. The ph is usually about 7.4 in the morning and I run it at 6.6...

The overflow runs into the sump, through 3 large sponge mechanical filters. Then the water runs up through ceramic tubes, then down through siporax. The last two chambers hold the heaters and co2 reactor. I use a 7kg co2 cylinder which I can swap for a full one locally when it is empty, which...

So, i run a four foot tank as the sump, which was set up like this for marines. This has changed into the following; Apologies for the poor pics, Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I really wanted a six footer, but when i drew a six foot line on the wall...OMG it looked huuuuge!!!: and so it was agreed by the powers that be, that five foot was the optimum size. It is 58 1/4" by 24" by 24" - why the funny measurements, you may ask.. Well as a typical Yorkshireman, i have...

So long story short I guess i will give you the preamble as is expected. I kept trops, then cichlids, then marines in the 80's when UG filters, tufa rock, Berlin skimmers were popular.... I then got hitched and that put pay to all that. Kids come along, and we go through a two foot cold...

Thought I should finally post some history and pics of my tank.

Fluval Studio 900. Hey. Looks good so far. Like the wood very much. Where did you eventually find it? Looking forward to more updates
