Thomas, i'm glad you still have the same amount of energy. Not everyone has passion for their jobs.
I just found that Thomas is here, and I want to say nice job because he still has the enthusiasm as he had before at Big Al's. Keep making great videos!
This guy is more entertaining than comedy central, no joke.
Do you have another alternate recommendation for CaRX? I see that it’s not offered anymore on the site. Thank you.
Great video. Awsome to see you here @BRS
Imagine if it had 0-10v input for 0ml to whatever the max speed is - controllers could then "dynamically" adjust the flow based on a probe or test result
Yea ! You can match the dosing rate to the evaporation in the tank using a Kalk stirrer . You know , as a ATO . Maybe not deadly accurate , but possibly good enough ? Nice pump ! Good review ! You said essentially . What's the demensions of the tank in the back ground ?
That's a Red Sea Reefer XL300. 36" x 22" x 22.6" 😀
@@BRStv Thank you ! Looks forward to see you stock it
I have a question ❔. If you need more alk. Because alk is dropping. You add ml? (Go up on dial?)
I'm assuming that you've got this attached to a calcium reactor. If so, then increasing the flow, while maintaining the pH inside the reactor, will give you more alkalinity into your aquarium
So it can 1.44 liter /day ( whit 1ml/min ? ) is there any other pump what could even less then that ? 0.5 liter -1 liter /day ?
What is the difference between lets say the kamoer x1 pro and this? I guess what I am asking is what is a peristaltic pump? I was checking out the x1 and x1 pro ,then saw a different model but same price and kamoer brand as well and one had the peristalic pump one didn't for same price!
The Kamoer FX-STP is continuous duty, meaning that it runs at a certain ml/minute all day long. The X1 and X1 Pro pumps will run for shorter periods of time, usually multiple times per day. The biggest difference between those two is that the Pro operates off of wifi and will resume dosing as normal if you have a power outage. The non-pro version will connect to your phone via Bluetooth and will need to be reconnected to your phone in the event of a power outage.
Can you set it to run at different speeds at different times automatically via the app? A good example is you don't want a calcium reactor to run at the same effluent rate 24 hours day because coral use less alkalinity at night.
Can this be used as an ATO and if so how would one do that...
The minimum flow rate is likely too fast to use this as an ATO unless you have a massive tank. Even so, a purpose built ATO system like the Osmolator will be a better choice and even less expensive than the Kamoer FX-STP.
@@BRStv Thanks, but you're recommending the osmolator and no one else sells it any longer...
@@sojusliimtdflock i just bought one...amazon sells it
Hey Thomas, wheres that Seneye video?
Around the corner ;)
why cant I get my seneye I bought from you to let me use the par meter? It wont show on my dashboard? Why would that be? I bought it to use it strickly for par. Maybe I should send it back to you guys, obviously something wrong. Another thing, can you just soak the slides in the tank water for days before you want them to work?
Love love love your energy! Great presentation too.
Yeah that’s a bit of a bend. If you alter the flow through the reactor, the pH in it also changes and as a result the potency of the efluent as well in an inverse relation. So you do need to adjust the co2 rate manually as well to tune it. It’s not just as easy as turning a knob on the kamoer.
True, however during our calcium reactor experiments, we didn't see as much of a change in pH as we expected as the flow rate was changed. You may not have to make as many (or as large) or adjustments as you might think.
Bulk Reef Supply hm, that’s interesting. It would be lovely to see a video about efluent output dKh value at a fixed co2 rate. So to see how the system depends on co2,ph, and flow rate!
2000 hour means 82 days..is that correct? Do we need to change the tubing every 3 months or so?
If you're running 24/7, yup.
That means it's not really suitable for carx or for 24/7 applications as oppose to what's adevrti
@@DC-xg6gt All peristaltic pumps need the tubing changed; it's a wear and tear part. The motor's ability to run 24/7 without burning out, accurately at high and low speeds, in 0.1 increments is what makes this pump suitable for CARX. ;)
Ouch nice but pricey I’d have to be gifted this one it hit
2000hours for the Tube? Thats Not even 3 months 😕
Is it really good for only 2000hours on Minimum 1ml?
For a continuous duty pump, that's actually a pretty long lifespan. The good news is that the replacement tube assembly is super easy to change and only about $8.
Direct comparison with the Ecotech Versa:

why would you need adjust it over wifi ? I have the older model amazing product. I'm sure this new product is also awesome but connected ? meh.
I love you guys, and I appreciate the enthusiasm for the hobby. However the 11 style energy talking really bothers me. Dial down just a bit. Voice and energy variation is key to being a great speaker/presenter. However info is great and thank you!!! Just feedback :P
Noted!
Like for the first comment
Ok gotta admit, I cringed when I heard "want your kalk stirrer to ... match your evaporation", just no. Sorry..
That said the tubing is rated for 2000 hours? at 24hrs a day that's changing every 3 months, is that normal?
Everyone has different ways of running their system! I know a few reefers who run their kalk reactors to match their evap with great results. You would still run an ATO to pick up the slack, and this way you can adjust the Kalk lower than evap if need be, which gives more control than running your ATO through a Kalk reactor. To each their own, though! The hobby has a near endless number of ways to run a reef.
All peristaltic pumps need to have the tubing changed periodically; it's a wear and tear part. If you can imagine how much more frequently a continuous duty pump has to run, say for a CARX etc, its dramatically more than most dosing pump applications where it only runs for a few minutes to a few hours a day at most.
Blah blah blah... why is the tank behind you now cloudy?!!!
I really don’t like this guy. Where is Randy.
This guy makes me not watch brs videos anymore
