Forgot to upload this picture. this just arrived yesterday afternoon.

Bashsea 8-30 bio-reactor. this is basically a kaldnes reactor. Bought it cos it just looks so amazing...hehe

[Martin Foo]

Hi YHS are those black colored balls bio pellets?As from what I know bio pellets suppose to be white.

[YHS]

those black colored balls are kaldnes. normally they are white, but bashsea custom made their own into blue and black colored

[Martin Foo]

Oic so i assume they serve the same purpose as the bio pallets.

[YHS]

from information i gathered, kaldnes media requires heavy oxygenated so it is more focus only aerobic bacteria.

Yes, cos without them, the fixture looks so plain. anyway, what do you think about my LED height? do you think they are too low?

[Rainmakersg]

Very nice build and well planned!

Yes it look a little bit too low and you might have issue with water splashing on to the unit later on which could also damage the unit . Hanging it higher would have a better spread of light in your main tank as well.

I think maybe is better to adjust your light when your livestock is in.

I did not use the orpek lighting before, so not sure about the spread of t he light but I hang my AI about 24" from water
