Apa gear you want hehe.

Drew

Its like that, c02 , when it decompresses, it'll form cold liquid around it...

So, it can be 1 of these few cases. like michanz said, either its going off real fast.. or leaking somewhere untill you dont know..

If got crack arr.. Long time boom already LOL

Try the soap water test if you need to clarify.

For the record, mine does not get cold... only when i purposely release all the c02 inside then it gets cold

About the c02 checker.. the ONLY c02 checker i OWNED SO FAR.. that actually turns back to dark blue overnight... guess what the brand is.. starts with A ends with A LOL!!

THough some may argue it's because i aerate my tank at night.. but heck. compared it to cheapos fakeo Drop checkers before... cannot swim

Drew

ADA's ones will cost you easily below 200, over 150..

Drew

Anyone here interested in 2nd hand c02 unit? lol.. helping a friend to sell.. expect it to be around rm 4xx (3l red tank + solenoid and everything else )

Drew

lol.. @ blinded,

those tubes also provide hiding space for your shrimps..

Drew

After some time, you would need to remove them as they would release the toxins or stuff back.. but there wasnt anything much in your tank to begin with, i doubt you need to remove it.. ( mine has been around since.. 1 year back? )

But yea, the concept is the same as activated charcoal

Drew

Activated bamboo charcoal on the other hand is way more expensive LOL..

I just remembered, you wont have to remove if it is activated bamboo charcoal.. it serves as housing for bacteria after the absorbing power is used up.

Drew

If its not a massive death. nothing you should worry too much about.. shrimps age too u know

Most important factor to me is L/H.. IMO

Drew

I support eheims all the way..

the difference between these MIC and eheim is the fact that you can get the eheim repaired easily if anything is to turn up.. I had a bad experience with a MIC jebo once... it failed and leaked, cannot find spare part some more.. I had to bin that. Got myself a 2236 after that lol.

Reliability is all i can say

Does those MIC canisters come with warranty ?

@Mic, seems like youre having a good time growing your tank.. its really lush. Keep it up.

Drew

ish tembak people already.

Yes. they will be sufficient

Drew

thats a puny chiller.. well the flow rate would be reduced significantly.. I personally would go for a 2215 for a 2feeter.. then again.. personal preference

Drew

haha Adrian.. Dunt add salt to wound... Mosuras aren't "humble crs"

@blinded,
With that kind of a budget, I bet you could get better.. in terms of the canister.. get any random big MIC canister.. fill it up with good media ( I still support the use of 2215 though lol )

I believe for 2feet , you need CL280 and above.. 150 is err.. PUNY LOL.

Why no c02?

Drew

If it is just moss.. having to buy a chiller is already too much LOL.

Ish. just say shrimp tank ma lol.

Then I recomend 2x2213

Drew

THat's a cory, it does not hunt algae, but more of cleaning your gravel system...

Research, never trust 100% what the LFS tells you

Drew

That plant is cambomba and you have a seriously bad case of BBA.. I sugest dose SeaChem excel or SAE
