DIY Acclimate / Top Up Water container

[yakh0o]

Just sharing a very easy and cheap DIY Acclimate / Top Up Water container.

When you finished your redsea carbon / any container, don't throw it. You can recycle it to become the DIY Acclimate / Top Up Water container.

Just use something sharp (like below) to make a small hole at the bottom and slowly increase the size of the hole until the Plastic Water Tube Control Valve can fit the hole.

This is the DIY Acclimate / Top Up Water container. I am using it to top up RO water to my QT tank.

 

When getting new coral or fish, first I will put the coral / fish in a small container (container pack food from hawker), then fill the DIY Acclimate / Top Up Water container with my tank water, and drip the water into the small container by adjusting the valve control.

For coral, once the water dripped to the container, I will separate 50% to another container, then add coral-rx coral dip to the 1st container to dip the new coral, and use the water in the 2nd container to wash the coral after dipped with coral-rx.

The Plastic Water Tube Control Valve can easily get at any LFS or (Clementi C328), it is only SGD 1 to 2.

simple and effective innovation! like how it’s cost-efficient and a good recyclable choice as well. even “single-use” plastics can be recycled if we just try!
