Seeing as I have hijacked Brian's thread...
Yeah, the extra cost for the alarm is unnecessary as I already have that part covered.
For the interim, until pressures and flows are worked out, I'm just going to get a couple cheap linears from
Allied Aqua They guaranteed them to work as advertised, and for screwing around, why spend too much.
Other thing is they had a sale on the low cost Jebo heaters, so picked up a half dozen of the 300 watt job's. I figure the elements should work OK, as most do, until they fry due to lack of proper circuit protection, but with these, I believe the controller would smoke first.
Silly me was all worried about getting the barrels fabricated to meet the media when it arrives within the next few days. On the way home, thought, why not just dump a bunch in the 40g breeder tanks, toss some bubbles in, pop the biowheel rigs on the tanks, toss some food in to grow the bacteria and kill 2 birds with one stone. I still have some quirks
