reaper78 Posted April 23, 2010 Author Share Posted April 23, 2010 the more the merrier... that's y i will be adding more rocks.... Be careful when adding live rocks. I hate it when i buy live rocks from LFS and they just wrap it in dam newspaper even when i ask em to put in a bag or stylofoam of water and i pay additional. I mean the bact when exposed to atmosphere might have negative impact on em. So when u add live rock from lfs, might affect ur current system.

Errm..if buy ozone, must buy orp controller somemore..... no i didnt. ur BK pump should have 2 nozzles. 1 for normal air and one for ozone. so just hook it up with the ozone nozzle. dun really need orp controller if you are pumping at low doze though. but still good to have. i never see my orp controller on/off, so the key is doze low. get some barlettes too. it will be nice Quote If a man could beat his own fantasy.
