  3. hi it been very long since i update about the ATS its been 10weeks months since i made my last WC decom my skimmer 1months ago( was worried at first and i did a nitrate test twice everyday for a week ,now i'm still doing but once a week) changes i made to the ATS increased the slit to about 3-4 mm upgraded the pump to ab3000 thing i noted. during the first 3 week , i don't notice much algae growth but after the 4th week the turf algae start to grow at a fast pace. seem to me there is also a so call 'break in ' period read santa monica about this part 'because weaker light will grow darker algae. Stronger light grows bright green algae, which does the most filtering' and 'Stronger lighting is always better, until you start "burning" the algae. Burned algae will be yellow, because it is getting too much light but not enough nutrients from the flow. More light requires more nutrients, which give you more filtering. So if you have yellow growth, increase the flow so that more nutrient are delivered to the algae. If you can't increase flow, then add some iron. If you can't add iron, then reduce the number of hours the lights are on. Do not reduce the wattage, however; stronger light for less hours is better than weaker light for more hours, because weaker light will grow darker algae. Stronger light grows bright green algae, which does the most filtering. ' thus i got a ab3000 pump from a reefer and try out. well picture show the 3 days worth of algae growth. just tested the parameter. NO3 0 using salifert my sump now only have filter socks for my DT outlet and my ATS outlets manual dosing of KH/MG/CAL still dosing prodibio biodigest and bioptim have to clean the acrylic once every 3 days due to salt spray but i guess i could live with the 5min maintenance i notice my KH got suck quite fast and i guessing it the ATS which doing it. increase my usual KH. my water clasrity became very clear and one of my brain showing sign of bleaching. had to locate it near to a shade planning to introduce zeovit AAHC and CV for my tank but reefdepot out of stock so for now . lovin my current setup now.

  15. It been 2 weeks since i did a water change but i'm not complaining! in fact my algae on tank had reduce tremendously, i used to clean the tank glass daily but now, i just clean it once every 3days. those hard green algae then u need to scrub it to get it off the glass, i able to use the magnet cleaner to clean it off bit by bit everyday. it seem the algae are starting to died off. i probably take my skimmer offline after my display tank is cleared off all algae my scrubber overdue picture dun really have much algae but i know there result from it just by the glass tank itself. running it 18h/d for lightning.
  16. previously i was dosing vodka daily, but i stopped after introducing my new scrubber

  18. overdue pictures my scrubber sit exactly into my sump without a single space left, almost like custom made to my sump. not sure if it is related but i think my water clarity gottten clearer, even my mum say so too. but trying to get rid of the large amount of bubble coming out from the outlet, made a temporary one as was too busy to head down to LFS. btw anyone know which LFS still have stock of ATI tube ? my tube is due to change already.
