Default phosban reactor - progess pics?

would anybody be interested in watching the results of a phosban reactor and hair algae. ive read lots of how it helps control/eliminate hair algae, and i'm thinking of taking photos - before and weekly updates
any interest??

Good idea. Also maybe the type of reactor and the media used.

well i didnt keep up with the weekly updates but i think i finally got the hair algae beat !!
i setup the reactor with phosban media at first, then in June i switched to rowaphos.

here's a shot of some of the algae i was dealing with, i really need to clean the glass before pics



as a fish only setup, i couldnt get any snails or crabs to help eat it up.
i'll post a picture today, once the wife brings the camera back from the beach.
i think i prefer the rowaphos, as the algae seems to be in check now that its gone
