  1. Should not be a problem. But you have one disadvantage. All those under the same 3 pin plug will on and off at the same time.
  2. Housing can be anything.But you need a good heatsink to hold all your led
  3. Wow this is going to be light of the year. 52 leds over 2 ft.
  4. There is a white balance setting on some of the camera.Play with this setting till you get a correctly color picture. Once set you can use that setting next time unless you change you spectrum setting
  5. A 50/50 mix will given you around 16k. Try to use warm white or neutral white then you don't have to worry about red and green and yellow. A mixture of blue,royal blue and UV is better then just blue alone. UV is a bit hard to get and expensive.
  6. Your canister also act as a mechanical filter. So result in nitrate buildup . Very hard to keep nitrate down in a canister system
  7. Is your chaeto tumbling and have enough lite?
  8. That is interesting. Learn something. But KH definetely very critical. Its good if there is a KH controller then can control KH more stable
  9. Any camera also can. Depend on what you want to take. Try not to use flash
  10. Ensure your container is clean and drain away the first 1 litre if you never use your RO/DI unit for more then a week
  11. Cheato require flow, light and a place for the chaeto. Easier to setup but I not sure they remove PO4. Algae scrubber need light(warm or red)Air bubble and netting.(For upflow) Need frequent trimming and confirm remove NO3 and PO4. But if lazy then cannot work right. Then you will have NO3 and PO4 buildup
  12. I clean every quarter also. Was working fine till one nite I go back then I stop suddenly. If any bro has the same model GP231 working ,I will like to borrow to test is the impellor issue and not the pump itself
  13. A lot of SPS? Yours KH is really low. Try to maintain at 8 to 9 But do not increase fast. Increase slowly over say 1.5 months. Any changes in more then 1 at short period of time is not encourage
  14. Bro Sunkist, Your Tesino 3500 l/h die because of what problem? Is it impellor? My just die last Thursday. Suspect is the impellor.
  15. Please follow this thread if you want to know more about how the algae scrubber work
  16. I install my algae scrubber in my sump. You can follow the scrubber build till installation in this thread from post #165 to #185.
  17. The algae harvest monthly from the Algae Scrubber
