Muttley000 Posted April 19, 2018 Author Share Posted April 19, 2018 I think I first turned them on Saturday and posted a pic in the 90 build thread. I didn’t specifically say what they were though crimsonvice 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muttley000 Posted April 21, 2018 Author Share Posted April 21, 2018 So I got some time to play and program my lights. I have one lagging 15 minutes from the other. I am brand new at this so any critique more than welcome! I used the intensities that are equal to the coral labs AB+. I want to let this run a few days and get my WAVs on before I move any corals into the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well here’s what happens when you just plug one in and turn it on for a few seconds without reading the directions lol. I guess I better study!

Flounder Posted April 25, 2018 Share Posted April 25, 2018 I noticed with the Gyre if you put it lower in the tank it won't knock sand away from the corner. Muttley000 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a likes vs dislike comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to see what you think of each. Maybe a likes vs dislike comparison. Still running it in the 65 in reverse gyre mode. Already I can tell you that the ability to reverse the gyre is one thing I like that I can’t do here, but for the same money I can make exponentially more flow with these. I’m not sure I will be able to go far over 50% in the 90 unless I go bare bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have also read that the icecap module robs the pump of some power but that is the only way to get the alternating direction flow. I don’t have the regular gyre controller to compare it to. I have it at 90 percent in my 65 and I do not think I have enough flow in that tank to be honest. The wavs put out 4000 gph at 100 percent. Now way my single smaller gyre is even in the ballpark flow wise. Don’t get me wrong I love how in alternating mode it makes my anemones sway! I wonder if the gyre moves so much water because it gets the white tank rolling with it? In alternating mode that is never allowed to happen (at least at the interval I am using) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muttley000 Posted April 26, 2018 Author Share Posted April 26, 2018 Kicked the left side up a fuzz, this put me at 80 times turnover not counting my return pump (about 500 GPH, thinking about putting a flow meter on here to be sure) by pieces of sand moving it looks pretty good, but I'm going to have to get some life in here to know for sure!

Flounder Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I have the Gyre 250 with the controller in my 150 and go up to 40% full stream and 60% reverse. Anything more creates a sandstorm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muttley000 Posted January 13, 2019 Author Share Posted January 13, 2019 (edited) So my Apex universe is expanding because I need to control my DIY lights on my 29. I have a spare EB832 laying around so I am making a board to hold it, the vdm for my light dimming, and a ph/temp module I need to buy. May put an ATK on this stand alone tank too because I always forget to top it off for a couple days. Anyways the 832 was missing the mount so I had to make one. Paint drying on mounting board, hopefully I’ll get it mounted later today so I can get the lights working automatically Edited January 13, 2019 by Muttley000 Forgot pics! Noone likes a thread without pics! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crimsonvice Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Extra EB8??? Lol wish I had the problem. Looks legit. Nice job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muttley000 Posted January 14, 2019 Author Share Posted January 14, 2019 Well, it didn't end well lol. I got my blues and whites and uv working. When I got to my moonlights which are on a driver that has flying leads instead of plugging int a board I hooked it up wrong and fried my conversion board, so I have to wait for a new one.
