So far I'm not having any issue with New Amazonia Aqua Soil, except for the fact that ADA seems to have added charcoal or carbon to the mix, which would account for the dust that floats to the...

Socket,

even with 4dkh water, a drop checker is pointless for me. My fluid was yellow and stayed that way...lol I have a feeling I'm way beyond 30ppm. I sold my ADA drop checker long ago, and...

Right now the GDA cleans up easily. I'm paying less attention to my tank and more attention to certain writing projects lately...(my head hurts), so I'm only cleaning once every two weeks or so. If...

I'm glad! It was a fun collaborative process. ;p

Hi,

I, too, was surprised how compact the unit is. It works like a champ, and the best thing is, it's better engineered than the ADA Vuppa, and I've had both. Sold the Vuppa months before this...

As Left C said, when we called or emailed Victor tech support, they said no problem to plugging that port for Co2 applications. It's really for protecting downstream equipments, etc. In our case, we...

A lot of finding that good CO2 level is hit and miss. Depending on how much filtration/flow your tank has, I'd shoot for 2-3 bps in a 40 gallon and adjust either up or down from there. Algae type,...

Benefits of the Eheim Skim350 over the ADA Vuppa-I:

Eheim is much lighter
Eheim is plastic and won't scratch the surface of your glass or acrylic tank
Eheim uses suction cups, which will fit on...

Eheim Skim350 is available in the U.S.

For any of you who don't have a wet/dry or overflow, and you have surface scum, this is a nifty little device, which easily outperforms and out engineers...

A bunch of us over at the SFBAAPS got our units today and are impressed. I replaced my ADA Vuppa with this unit, and it seems to be outperforming it so far. It's much stronger at removing surface...

Be gone surface scum.

Now is your chance to ORDER the brand new to the U.S. market Eheim Skim350. See product specs below:

Where are you located?

I didn't think about that. It looks as though the regulator is sitting on its backside, which means it would be a single stage. I hope that's not the case. Thank God paypal and ebay are buyer...

Ah, the holy grail. That's a good price, too. Looks to be new old-stock. Wish I could see the sticker, though. The HPT500s look exactly the same except for the gauges. This looks to have the proper...

Cut dog. Yeah, I know of someone who was thrown across a garage and slammed against a wall by a pressurized gas tank. He was a welder. Notice I said "was." I totally understand the need for safety.

look at post #1 for examples:

Important thread and link to read for all pressurized CO2 users. Thanks for posting it. A lot of people don't think about the fact that they can be hurt or killed by pressurized co2 or by building...

Plenty of co2 in that tank. I had two eheim Pro-2s circulating the bubbles everywhere. Looked like a whirlpool in there. HC and glosso sometimes start off vertically before their runners root or you...

Thanks. That was my old 55L. No longer with us, but I went through a hairgrass phase...lol The stones are:
