Added a DCI module to control the WP40'S from the Archon. Disconnected the dual controller that they came with.

Had a low PH problem for a few weeks. Down to 7.7 at night. Parameters were all good so I figured it was CO2. Moded the skimmer with an air line down through the basement to the outside for fresh air. Now im up to 8.2 during the day.

8.2 during the day is good, what about at night though?? You said it used to drop to 7.7....I have a lab grade probe and watch my ph like a hawk and every night it drops like crazy probably down to 7.6-7.7 and then up to 8.2 during the day (I have a small biocube)...has your ph gotten higher at night also?

oops, just saw your post :) Many years ago when the internet was just getting going I used to go to a chat room called fishroom. There were maybe 6-10 people that went in and talked about our tanks and such. One of the regulars was actually Sanjay. So, that's where the name comes from

We were going to move for my job and ended up selling the tank. I sold it to Scranton Aquarium in Scranton, PA. Well we didnt move and now im doing a 450g buid. I currently have some holding tanks running for grow out and fish collecting. I found a lot of good deals on cragslist from tear downs. Got some good size for for great prices.
