I ended up getting one of the 65mm Bazooka atomisers from Co2art, Ideally I'd like to go over to a reactor at sometime but want to make sure I'm happy with filtration and flow first. To use an in-line diffuser would mean using reducers and possibly reducing the filters flow, people have...

Hello everyone, I'm just trying to decide on the last few details before setting my Fluval Roma 240 up and was after some advice and opinions on Co2 at the moment I have a FE with a dual stage regulator with solenoid so fully adjustable on the pressure! I'll be using 2 x APS 2000EF filter which...

It seemed like a good idea until I tried it.... Excuse the state of the tank I'm still cleaning it up but 3 filters just doesn't really fit lol :(

Thank you for your reply! I rather stupidly forgot to mention the diffuser I have is an in-line one as is the external heater, they were purchased for the tubing size on the tetra filter so to use them on the APS filter will mean using reducers and possibly Y-Splitters so would all get messy...

Hello everyone, I'm after some advice on how to set things up..... As I've had this empty tank for far too long now! I currently have... 1 x Empty Fluval Roma 240 with 2x39watt T5HO 2 x All Pond Solution 2000 1 x Tetratec EX600 1 x Hydor 300Watt External Heater 1 x Up Aqua Co2 Diffuser 1 x UP...

I should also add I won't be using pure RO water it'll be a mix of tap and RO but I don't want to keep having to goto the fish store to buy RO water lol :p

Here is an image of a filter I had in a tank for a week.....

Because my water isn't very nice TDS normally comes out about 400-440 and don't even get my started on the terrible amount of lime scale deposits that get left everywhere!

Thank you for confirming that.... this tank will get finished when I get another heater, the rest of the CO2 stuff and an RO filter lol:(

I just had this horrible image of my tank looking like a whirlpool lol. With the 2 filters I have I think I can cover most of the length of the tank with the spray bars.... Just not sure if I should have the inlet's and outlet's on opposite sides.

Uhh ohhh I haven't set my tank up yet but I have 2 x All Pond Solution 2000 L/H filters for my 200L tank.... Didn't realise it was 10x manufacturer rating :eek:

Have you taken a look at seneye? Monitors more than just PH too.

An option for ordering in the uk..... UP Twin Gauge Adjustable CO2 Regulator - Solenoid - Needle Valve (A-165)

I've got the A-165 and not had any problems with it :)

It's not the dust it's the horrible perfume they add to it to cover the smell of cat crap :p Personally I wouldn't use it in the cats litter tray either.
