    Swimming Pool Heater Pump for heating up centralised system fish room

    What if you connect it to a swirl filter to remove the solid first then filter it through a series of brush and mesh and foams before directing the water to the heat pump? I know for sure that this was used in big scale aquaculture but does that mean they have heat pump of a different calibre...

It basically work like a reverse air conditioninig unit where it extract the heat from the air surround the machine and transfer the heat to the water column it's meant to be heating up. It will work as long as the...

    DIY Aquarium - Little Help Please

    1. It's personally. You can use either 30 or 45 cm with that. 60cm height on this dimension would be rare and slightly unusual. 2. Silicon. However, if you choose to use acrylic then you have to use acrylic cement. 3. Most tank builder recommending putting the side on the base. It's a base after...

    DIY Project DIY Reactor - pictures, assembly and testing

    Thanks for the quick explanation. Was hoping to build one similar to your initially till I saw your post. I was considering the use of acrylic tubing instead of PVC tubing as they are much much more dearer. I was thinking of construction a linear one without a bend as I've got a 2 tier tank rack...

    DIY Project DIY Reactor - pictures, assembly and testing

    Just out of curiosity why the bend at the outlet? I was told that any bending in that is not linear will slow the rate of flow down by a lot. Wouldn't it look better make it with the same connector as the one you have in the inflow area rather than the bend? Sorry if I've missed this but was...

    using surface skimmers to increase dissolved oxygen?

    don't think we pay much attention to O2 saturation in the tank since if it's a planted tank, the photosynthesis should be adequate for fish to survive in the tank. Further we don't tend to keep the tank at 30 degree or more as discus keeper so O2 readily dissolve into the water to reach...

    automatic top-up / water change

    Sounds good to me but how will you be connecting this to the pump? Will you be putting the switch in the main tank or will you be putting a overflow sump with the switch in it? If you have an overflow, you can just drain the water from the sump and it will automatically replaced the water there...

    Setting up in line equipment

    I think the drain pipe should be on the outflow side unless your draining outlet is significantly lower than your tank and the siphon in the system never fails. However if you install the drain pipe at the outflow system you can utilise the pump from your external to pump water into the drain...

    Vacuum Cleaner ?

    You can get a similar one from ebay. Slightly different build but cheaper. Are you looking to hoover the surface of water or the surface of substrate? If's it's the water surface then I suggest just use a net.

    automated fert dosing

    If you can get hold of a syringe pump that they used in the hospital and a 50ml syringe you can use that for automated regular dosing. I've set it to pump 24 mls an hour but I believe it can go lesser if you need it. Just hard to get one. and I would imagine pretty expensive too
