I also had the chance to see the setup of a fairly large CRS breeder here on the East coast, Their tap water is 0-1kh 0-1gh and a low Ph ideal for shrimp. These values are very close to RO. They actually had to add a system to add minerals to their tap water for drinking and so it didn't dissolve th...

let me try to answer your questions one by one, I just recently bought a 4 stage spectra-pure unit so I've done a lot of research lately. Is it worth it? Well this depends on how much water you'll be making and how much water (and sewage) cost per gal in your area. If you get a standard ro unit the ...

Next step is to drill a bunch of tap holes so that after I apply the thermal adhesive to the LED's, I can secure them in place with screws. If your going through all of the hassle of drilling and tapping the holes, skip the thermal epoxy and go with standard thermal paste (arctic silver 5) The epox...

I'm psyched to wire it up. I think I will actually get some decent PAR readings with the current number of diodes. Maybe only need to add another half dozen maximum.
