Phosphate were nil. Bad test kit though (hagen, *shudders*) nitrates were around the 7 mark.

couple days after adding the pellets water was crystal clear. I normally would wait to try something like this, especially since my tank is pretty tiny, but you know. i was passing though so i decided to get some.

Although, i was looking for a hang on reactor and when that wasn't available i just picked whatever was next. Hence the vertex. but like i said, i got anout a 1/8 volume increase.

HA. Pretty close. i was originally going to run it from the ground and pipe it up sort of in a closed looped fashion so that probably would have double it. Simplicity is best though. Like i said before, when i was in-visioning it's size i think i had the ole shrink ray going. oh well, isn't hurting anything.

Thanks! the tank has come a long way from the start. I think I am at a point where i am quite satisfied with the placement of everything, so now its the tanks time to settle in and do it's thing.
