More Reef Progress

Filed under: Reef — Brad @ 9:32 pm

I spent some time this weekend getting the aquarium ever closer to being ready for fish. I now have everything running through my aquarium controller instead of plugged directly into the wall like it has been for the past several months. The controller is programmable and can be set to turn devices on and off at whatever times you choose. It can also monitor the temperature and pH of the water and adjust things accordingly (like turning off the lights if the water gets too warm). In addition to setting up the main controller, I also installed the controller for my two high flow pumps in the tank. The controller for the pumps can ramp the pumps up and down from low flow to high flow and switch back and forth between which pump has the higher flow in order to increase the variability of water flow in the aquarium.
