Love your aqua scape! How long did it take you to cycle? I am on day 10 or so and have high readings on everything! BUT my ammonia wont go down! i keep doing water changes like crazy. I think because I added some rock after I cured some rubble so maybe leaching ammonia. I am wondering if I should add more but dont know that I need to because all my reading are high so something is definitely happening just very slowly! I didn't read until after I added it to check for amonia first and if you have some not to add! I am wondering if I should add some bacteria from my display tank. He never mentions that but I have always heard that will speed the cycle! I have salinty at 1020 might lower it and temp at 85 would like to get higher so may plug in another heater! I would have added all the rock at once even if its not in place because you dont want to add dead rock after the cycle! Thats why I am having so much ammonia! I have a basket of rubble I am wanting to add now but it leaching ammonia so I guess I wont!
Can’t say the outcome looks natural, but appreciate the techniques which have gone into this, currently researching for my first tank, can’t wait to get my hands on some rock!!,
Thanks for the video. Exactly what I, was looking for. Just traded a buddy of mine some high end Zoas for his Alkatronic. Gonna be hooking it up very soon and was looking for some info on it. You answered all my questions.
How do you flatten the rock that way, or did you buy it like that? Do you know the best way to flatten a rock without it crumbling in pieces? I would assume like a Sanding belt or bandsaw but would like to know the best way to get the rock flat like the ones you have in this video.
Gosh, it looks amazing and so easy and fast to set. I've been having trouble to use AF stone fix probably this method suits me better. Thank you so much, looking forward to try myself!!!!!
I love your scapes. Your videos have been such a help and inspiration for me, thank you. Can you give me details on where and/or how I get the glue? Many thanks, Mark.
Hey man you planning on dropping more vids in the future? I really liked watching this tank setup! Im curious to see where your at today with this setup. Hope to see you back at some point dude 🤙
I had an issue this morning with my unit. I was testing some new saltwater and my cat went and knocked it over! It was a pain in the ass. I would take the prism out and re-seat it only to get "Air" as an error message. After a few tries and some expletives later, I think I got it fixed. Recalibrated it and hoping it's still accurate lol. May buy a refractometer to compare just in case. Love your vid. Not a lot of videos on repairing this. Cheers!
Tool hoarder problems: I wonder if I should use the cold steel chisel, or the dewalt construction chisel. We're certainly not using the fancy woodworking chisels.
