Is that a low flow line? Probes generally don't work correctly in a high flow.

Yes Sir!! that line is just going to be a trickle to feed my fuge,

does anyone know anything about my probes being out of water for the last two days? did i mess anything up??

Alright guys! today has been a good start so far, I got all the glass for the sump ready and siliconed in place







Then i got it put inside the cabinet and started putting my equipment in and sizing things up

1. Back right corner is the Tunze ATO



2. Right infront of the ATO chamber is the return pump, and to the right of the return and ATO is the fuge



3. Next came the skimmer



4. Then right at the front is the down pipes that feed the whole sump





5. the only thing left to do is to cut a piece of acrylic to sit just on the otherside of the tubes to hold my filter sock, then its water time!!


While i had the sump out i took the chance to wire in my GFCI plug and then cut up an extension cord to wire the whole box to one single plug that i can plug into an existing outlet under my desk

Holy crap buddy! Thats some amazing DIY and design skills you got there! Looking fantastic.

All these sweet stuffs for a nano! Total killer

(I am putting my bet on this build for the contest )

[The Grizz]

Way more effort in your nano then mine that's for sure. Nice job!!

As for the probes, get them back into a SW mix ASAP, once you have filled the tank do the calibration, if they calibrate ok your all good.


Now GET SOME DAMN SW IN IT!!

Agreed although fresh water works fine as well. It's just the pH and Redox that you have to worry about, temp will be fine.
