  8. hydrowave wavemaker, which will cost more. increasing the flow will helps to reduce the cyano algae, but provided ur sand bed will not be flush up by ur wave marker. Actually, cyanobacteria are blue-green slime or grease algae. Red film algae, the type that grows in mats on substrates and over animals. Nuisance algae thrives on nitrate, phosphates, and silicate. Reducing these components will help arrest a nuisance algae problem. A first step toward limiting nutrients could be to add more water flow. This helps to keep the nutrients suspended in the water column so that mechanical filtration and protein skimming can remove them
  9. Hi, my TDS reflect 55 to close 60 in reading. while reflect 0 in distill water. Tap water is comprised of nutrients that may result in ongoing algae problems in the aquarium. These include phosphate, nitrate, and silica etc. Chlorine can often be removed simply by letting the water age appropriately prior to use. Some aquarists aerate it, and others simply let it sit for a few days. Chlorine can also be removed with a variety of different commercial products that react with chlorine and reduce its toxicity. Chloramine is not so readily removed by aging, and is more complicated to remove with commercial dechlorinating products since one must also remove the ammonia. there are some aquarists who use only tap water and are seemingly very successful. We've also heard the opposite. Short of testing your own water, there is no way to be certain that your water is acceptable. Some testing with kits is likely desirable, but certain tests will require professional labs. cheers
  10. Quote from James M. Kostich. The risks of UG filters. If all else is perfect - if the fish are not overfed, if circulation is not hindered, if the tank is not medicated, and if the gravel is cleaned frequently with water changes - success can be achieved using UG filters. We stock UG filters and power heads mostly for those experienced hobbyists who have had previous success. Unfortunately, in most cases, something is less than perfect. Usually, after a few months of operation, the gravel begins to pack with so much silt and dirt that circulation stops and the bacteria suffocate. Since the filter still appears to be working, water quality deteriorates, usually unnoticed until it is too late. If the tank is medicated or overfed, an even more rapid die-off of the culture may occur. A speedy water change may avert disaster, but this is the sort of headache and frustration we are trying to spare our customers. .. I believe, this is not a referral of DSB set up. In a DSB, we understand that bacteria that convert nitrogenous waste to harmless nitrogen gas are anaerobic. this means they live in conditions with no oxygen. i guess this article is not reffering to DSB, and we assume/ believe that Ed Neo is not going to set up a DSB in a 2 full main tank too. Hopes this article by James M. Kostich helps us understand better on UG and thanks for ur enquiries.
