water alarm is not a bad idea. I saw these little 14 dollar jobies today at Van Isle water . the where just self contained things the size of a roll of film .. If you can remember what that is .
To metal contacts on the bottom . when they get wet . buzzer goes off. Mike-Fish . thats a simple idea actually . I have been using the timer on the stove but i like that . Could use that concept for the main feed into the RODI and have a mechanical float in the RODI container as well . **tank update . Got a tunze ozmolater hooked up to my tank . Its working great . super easy to install. Now I need a bigger top off water holding container lol .. I am just filling my little one twice a day now instead of the sump .... Picked up a scarlet hermit , couple more snails and a skunk cleaner shrimp . Also got a few more peices of really nice live rock from Wayne ..  fish will be soon .. cant wait

Scarlets are awesome IF they are true scarlets. Many stores sells the typical red legged ones as scarlets. They are very mild, don't fight and great scavengers. Sometimes, they just need a little bit of push to work since they are probably the laziest hermits out there :P

Yeah super simple to do I have the valve on the supply line ( copper valve) hooked up to a timer that's used for lights ( hard wire) unit I also have the power to the ro on it as well to minimize the chance of running the boost pump dry. All the parts probably cost about 100$.

ok , well Tank has been running smoothly .
Did a few small water changes .. I need to come up with a better way of doing this . I end up with water all over the place lol. Still doing my water tests .. I have yet to say any ammonia, nitrite , and i think i may have a little nitrate .. still cant tell . I added a shrimp 10 days back , it is eating well . All my snails are happs , as are my 2 hermits . The few corals that i added 3 weeks back are doin great . ! . I Have since just recently received some amazing SPS corals from a good friend . So they got placed yesterday. I hope to also be getting a few fish this weekend as well . The BIG news in my build . Is the the following equipment is purchased /. First Vertex Libra .. Over the top i know . but sure does look cool . Full apex controller .. with temp and ph probes . Picked up a set of test kits , so i can start to watch water prams . Also got a hanna checker which i try out soon .. And on stand by i picked up a phosban 150 to put in place if needed .. Also order my new LED light set up .. any guesses on what I chose ? ( those of you that know already shhhh? I would like to thank Spencer at Blueworld Aquariums here in Vic for working with me on my order. Was a good transaction and will be happy to shop there in the future . Also order my new LED light set up .. any guesses on what I chose ? some pics to keep everyone interested     Things i have learned .. 1. You cant put a new filter sock in the sump ... o my god skimmer went nuts within seconds. 2. My mag drive 9 is louder then i would like . 3. I have to come up with a easy method of doing water changes .. thats all folks
