I got some plans for the space, so he is on Aquabid for sale...Hate to part with him, but I got to have the room for a special occupant...dennisdeng2002;3148752; said:I opened the pic and my computer froze...
That's the sign of a true MONSTER FISH
After all that I need to clean out the garage so I can set up all my fabrication and maintenance gear and tools.
PT57 and myself are currently working on a TAP water filter/de-chlorinator, plumbed to the tanks from house supply.
I have drilled my 225 for a 33% waterchange, by placing a 1.5" bulkhead 1/3rd the distance down from the top of the waterline to the bottom of the tank.
I plumbed a .75" ball valve to a Female Hose Fitting... and into the 1.5" bulkhead...
This way I can use the male hose fitting on the hose to connect to, and drain to yard/barell/flowerbed/etc...
then;
to refill the tank from house supply via DeChlorinator, I already am connected, so I just have to connect the female hose fitting to the male hose fitting on the filter/hose bib/ pump / whatever...
We are still running tests on my RO/DI unit...A mix with non-RO water to get a net 6.8 is what I am looking for.
I am still sure I want to premix in a couple of BRUTE 40g drums and the W/C with that, because I am just not comfortable with the drip systems I have seen as far a being reliable AND cost effictive...
I just do not like the idea of not having an unlimited amount of water onhand for anything that might require it...
Well that's all for now PIX to follow....

You need to just jump on my band wagon. I spent $140 (which could have been cheaper. hindsight being 20/20) and still have perfect parameters coming out of the tap. I haven't even touched the carbon yet. It would only be about $10 to change it out and be completely fresh again. Even cheaper if you buy it in bulk. Now that, my friend, should be plenty efficient for you.

Yup I have been toying with the idea, I dropped the DI cartridge, and located a couple three cartridge housings...Just need the time and energy to get it sorted out...Thanks Guys for the Info...~BYanbbrox;3267599; said:
Thanks, I'm about to get my nephew to dive the tank, and screw in 2x 1.5" to 1" reducers and 45's to redirect and increase the return water speed...irab;3270535; said:
