OK CarmieJo, I'll give it a shot. From the furthest left, chiller, the orange thing is my
Kalk reactor (Home made, next to that is a small well lit
refugium (175
MH I bought new but wouldn't fit under my hood. Under the
refugium is one of two final holding
sumps, 30 galls each. The grey rubermaid 33 was my
kalkwasser holding tank, which worked fine for ten years but then I started to believe that an airtight container might be better, now it holds fresh
RO pumped through the reactor. The blue 60 gall is new salt mix. Straight up is the white 30 rubbermaid wich is pre skim, UV and Eco Aqualizer....which I believe does do something good, but never really took off...didn't matter, I had to try it. To the left of that is
Skimmer,
CA reactor, CO2 and Ozone reactor. The large smoke box is a
wet/dry with the bio balls removed (about seven years ago) and the most impressive piece of equipment, the magnum 350 running carbon, for a total of 16 years, 24 hours a day, on the original impeller! The electrical outlets and switches are all on seperate lines,
GFI (learned that the hard way) but are only there so I don't have to run upstairs to the reefkeeper II to turn off a pump. the very small blue valves control
RO input to the new salt
sump, holding tank, or direct to tank to desalinate if for some reason my
salinity raises above the 1.023 mark, and the last is for an
RO supply to mix Turbo calc or buffer before it gets auto dripped into
sump 3. You can see to the far right where I am plumbed into a 4" cleanout for water changes,
skimmer overflow, and new salt dump (which prevents overflow prob number 17) and finally, a really slick system for my motorhome holding tanks, (unrelated to tank, but accounts for at least 3' of
PVC. The tank sits in the living room directly above. What you don't see, is how the skimmate used to be pumped to a hydroponic tomato and pepper garden after a hail storm wiped out hours of work outside. Amazing what skimmate does for tomato plants. After I did the math, I figured the 400 watt Merc Vapor bulb cost more to run than all the tomatoes I could buy at the store. So you see, this is all purely a result of my own tendency towards the lazy side of the scale. It holds so much water and since everything can be dialed to the smallest increment, it really is the most stable 90 gallon reef I know of.
to TR. I can see you are going to fit in here with no problem!
