Questions & Answers

As of now, I have my lights on a timer, but I see no way to control my regular lights and the moon lights separately. Where can I find a solution?

As far as there are switches, there are two on each side one for the moon lights and the other There are probably some things you can do to make them work on a timer, differently from each other, but you'll need to be pretty good at electrical work to do that. The other option would be to just purchase the HOB tank and pump, and order a light that has a timer.

Which is the most effective stingray suit? The fuseray or the stingray suit?

In this case, I don't have either type of flashlight, but judging by the reviews on Amazon, the Stingray will produce more light. To gain a deeper understanding of the descriptions on line, use the links provided.

When I see the style "water pump" does that mean that the pump is what I am looking at? Are there instructions in the box as well?

No light comes with it, but it comes with the pump and box

Could you suggest ways to reduce the amount of water getting into Currently, I'm finding that the flow rate of the water entering the box is way too high. ?

By reducing the flow on the tube that came with the pump, the flow will be reduced.

Let me give you some advice to the person who claims a design flaw
5/5

Please visit https//www. usa. gov/ There is nothing better than this product. In a review here, it is stated that this sofa is flawed because it does not There is a problem. A LEVELING KNOB IS INCLUDED WITH THIS KIT. Two of them are on the bottom, and they are turned so that the fumes are pushed away from the tank and it is leveled. Make sure you don't make the same mistake as the guy with a stack of books under his fuge because he can't read directions. As far as the kit is concerned, it's fairly quiet and complete, and it works perfectly with my hang on refugium. There is a slight hum, but nothing to worry about. It is a good product, and I am sure to purchase it again.

Baby fish fry products are great, but keep them out of the reach of children! Earlier this year I purchased the unit that came with a water pump and My only disappointment is that it does not come with an adapter that allows you to connect It seemed like it would be perfect to keep three there Fish fry in the oven from a day earlier is fine, however, even at the lowest setting the water circulation is strong enough that one of the dividers is required The one thing I didn't like was that all the fish fry, except for two, got washed into the main tank through the water outlet despite the strainer piece being My fault for not knowing this before, since I could have easily fixed it with a small piece of foam (which is pictured in the picture)
4/5

However, this product is quite good other than that, and I will most likely not use it again to keep fry, but I will use it to grow some high light plants or to keep crushed coral to maintain the pH of my tank.

It is very versatile, but it is too small to satisfy the purpose and the price
4/5

Overflow risk. PROS Please note
It is easy to assemble - To circulate water you can use the supplied pump or air pump - I like the dividers and cover because they're convenient, but have the following cons This box is much smaller than expected given how many developers it contains - In the event of an unadjusted outflow, an overflow hazard can occur. Note the dimensions of the object. Even with both dividers in place, to personalize the section, you're limited to what is available. My purpose is not to raise fish here, but the size is good enough to raise fry. Using a drip acclimatization system is easy for acclimating saltwater fish. There is a little room to spare on the long side of a 29 or 20-gallon tank, but the short side of a 10 gallon tank is just a little too wide. In the process of installing the accessory bag, I forgot the small fence from the outflow. A fish fell through the outflow due to this. After using it as a mini refugium for my Chaeto algae later, I found this fence to be easily clogged with debris and I started to see water dripping on to the floor as it overflowed. My personal experience has taught me that you should adjust the cams on the bottom so that the aquarium appears level instead of level and tilted. It is also necessary to push the cams in firmly to prevent them from spinning. In this way, flooding is prevented if the outlet gets clogged, which is way too small, in my opinion. They should make it wider to be able to use all the side space of a 29/20 tank, and maybe a bit wider in the other direction as well. The concept is great, but the product is a bit small for the price. It would be nice to have a smaller model that fits onto a short side of a 10 gallon aquarium as well as a larger model that fits into other.

Growing chaeto algae is easy with this media
5/5

A refugium has been added to the side of my sump to act as a filter. I like the quality of the lamp and the chaeto grows out of control. The light wasn't working when I received it, but Amazon quickly sent me a replacement!.

5/5

Though the concept works, you can get some really crazy results by tweaking it a little bit. If you have coral in the tank, this will really bleed into your tank and throw everything off. First, do not get the light. It works, but will bleed into your tank badly and cause chaos. Put some cheap LED panels under and behind the box so the light comes from the back. Make it a 24/7 operation by covering the whole unit in something light yet impermeable (a bit of tin foil will do). The high nitrate level that I'd had for many years fell to a wild 3ppm with this upgrade so far on a 36 gallon tank with all the There is also an air stone in the front part of the bubble, so the bubbles cannot go under and over it. This keeps my water pure and sounds like rain, looks like a sunset, and looks like a sun set. It is literally impossible for me to express how happy I am.

Here, you're getting an excellent value for your money
5/5

The quality of what you get for this price is quite good. I'm really impressed with the value here. Considering how much you get for these prices, it is quite reasonable. In the end, I decided to go for the version with Fugelight to splurge a bit. My hunch is that just the base model without lights would work well with a small LED light that would be a few dollars cheaper, but that's just my assumption. Regarding those who claim that the light brackets won't fit when the lid is up, the inner part of the bracket can be removed without much difficulty. In the absence of this, you can not secure the bracket (and take out the screws too), but you can use the bracket as a stand. In this case, the light does not have to sit on top of the lid and block the holes, causing water spills. Although I do not like the way the spacers are added to level the box with the side of the tank, I don't mind the way they were done. My trust in them is shattered because they are totally insecure. It would have been hugely beneficial to have a simple set of holes with two screws. In order to secure each one permanently to the box, I am going to add a drop of super glue to each one. I still don't have too many complaints about them at this price. These companies offer incredible value for what you get here, and I absolutely recommend it to anyone who thinks paying over $100 for this type of thing is a waste of money.

I recommend it! We have been running our refugium for nine months now, and it is full of life
5/5

We have amphibians, copepods, baby Bristle Worms, among other things. In the main section there is a large clump of chaeto growing on one side and mud on the other side. Keeping the chaeto trimmed is an ongoing task.

It is a great value for the money, but I would recommend that a few design changes be made
3/5

This kit is great! I'm very satisfied with it. Due to the way this was designed, even after leveling the unit I have had a few spills. The first thing to note is that if I turn on the pump to full power, it will forcefully force water to the surface- There is no damage to the lid even with it The other risk is that a blocked spillway will result in the effluent spilling outside It would have been easy to fix these design issues if some minor adjustments had been made. It is, as it is, impossible for me to put either of the points on top of the spillway, as spillage is inevitable. It may be necessary for me to make small cuts into the top of the tank to change the failure mode so it will only be possible to Probably just a couple of millimeters difference is needed to take care of.
