If you thought that theJoe Yaiullo的20,000加仑礁坦克的照明是折衷的,只需等到您获得该庞然大物礁水族馆显示器上使用的各种过滤设备的负载。从过滤设备到蛋白质撇油器到各种类型的化学介质,长岛水族馆的20K礁箱采用了整个不同技术的范围,以保持水清洁,清晰,健康且可提供。
到目前为止,在巨型礁石罐中使用的最好,最大的单个设备是乔(Joe)建造的巨大蛋白质撇渣器,具有非常简单的文丘里注入蛋白脱脂原理,与近20年前的撇渣器可能期望的相同,除了缩放到巨大的比例外。We don’t have exact specs on the multi horsepower pumps in use on this aquarium, or how much air draw this protein skimmer sucks in, but we did take a look at the collection cup and the giant heaping mound of skimmate is all we really need to know about this skimmer’s everyday performance.
Also employed on the largest reef tank, is a nice generous dose of O3 ozone, a technique which works particularly well with venturi injection skimmers. On this tank 1000mg of Ozone is added per hour by a 4-cell Eclipse4 O3 generator – one thing we liked about talking with Joe about his Eclipse 4 is the regular maintenance he performs on the O3 generating cells and how important it is to perform preventative maintenance on equipment like this and other devices to keep them in peak working order. The Ozone really helps to clear the aquarium water, especially with such a heavy fish load and Joe can tell if the ozone is not getting into his skimmer properly as the tank will begin to show a yellow discoloration to the water within three days.
您可能会惊讶地发现这不是20K礁石蛋白质相关的过滤职责的终结。好像自制的文丘里(Venturi)和重型臭氧管理还不够another使用的蛋白质撇渣器是一个大型的6英尺6英尺的下降气流撇渣器,可用于冗余,还可以用作更专用的伏特加酒给药位置。当然,在整个水族馆中,每天约250毫升添加伏特加酒,在整个水族馆中都有经验,但是通过使用Venturi的超级干撇掠,以及湿润的下降流水脱脂,Joe真的可以吸收由浪费堆积的废物。从伏特加乙醇中以液态碳为食的细菌。
伏特加 /液体碳剂量制度只是乔用来打击这个非常大的礁石罐中营养素的众多技术之一。浓重的磷酸盐浓度是通过慷慨添加的兰植物氯化物(一种常见的化学添加剂)来进行的,这是一种用于游泳的常见化学添加剂新万博登录网址在结合和沉淀PO4方面非常出色的池。
But the use of LaCl can only reduce PO4 levels so far, and this is where phosphate removing medias can get the phosphate levels down even further. In addition to a typical media reactor using copious amounts of Phosban GFO, there is another dedicated media reactor by Deltec, a 6ft tower specially designed for fluidizing media which is currently using a high-capacity phosphate absorbing resin by Blue Life USA.
这个巨大的礁石中库中使用的“过滤”的最后一个方面是一个自制的双骨钙反应器,由两个蓝线泵提供动力,一个用于每个腔室。重型钙反应堆设计对保持碱度非常有用,但乔也服用了gallonsof kalkwasser to the reef tank as well. The kalkwasser is mixed with a little bit of vinegar to add in the calcium dissolution and to buffer the extremely high pH of fully saturated calcium hydroxide.
