Hi guys,
Here it is , ticking along with no fuss. It's like it runs itself. I've got it down pat these days.... At some stage during the week I make around 30-40 liters of RO water, at the same time the evaporation top up container gets filled. I simply turn on the RO and replace the bucket about 3 hours later, if I forget the water overflows and goes down the drain. Salt gets added to the RO and is mixed with an air stone when I get around to it. I clean the glass once a week with filter wool usually the day before I do the water change. Clean the Skimmer cup and replace filter wool in sump, open a tap in the sump and drain out the water amount that's going to get changed. Top up with new salt water mix. All this takes an hour to complete, although once a month I have to get in there with a scraper to deal with coralline on the glass.
Hope you enjoy the quick snap I took last night.
