Maxi-Jets arrived

Assembly was surprisingly quick and easy

Dual Maxi's

I order these from Marine Depot and they really do work (can't afford the vortech right now). They send you to propellers one rated for 1600gph the other 2100gph. I'm thinking of adding one more which will bring total flow up to roughly 6000gph. I also have the skimmer up and running and I'll post pics of that later.

S couple of my ATO which consist of a 5 gallon tank that was originally intended to be a sump/fuge for the 29 gallon but it never happened

I like the arch. I really like your aquascaping too! It gives me some good ideas for my tank.

How are you controlling the pump for the ATO?

deaclauderdale · 02-16-2008, 05:56 PM

Thanx for the complement. With a float switch. Pics to come soon of all hardware and what's under the stand.

Here's what it looks like under the stand

A shot of the electrical (lights)

Pumps and heaters

The float switch I got from Autotopoff.com, works like a charm

And finally the resivor in place with the pump.

All wiring will be cleaned up a bit better once I get my Aqua Controller Jr. and DC8. (should be a birthday gift from the misses).
