Title: immersion element,circulating water in baffled tank
Post by: clean on February 08, 2012, 04:58:59 pm

Only problem iv`e got is due to the centre baffle is it sepertaes my tank into two halves and so when the immersion element is warming the water i have nice warm water in one half and cold in the other so once im on the move the two halves start to mix together and i end up with slightly aired water so im going to use a pump to mix the water while its warming,anyone else solved this problem ?

i USE A SMALL FISH TANK PUMP OR A CARAVAN PUMP. PUMP FROM THE COLD TO  THE HOT SIDE ON A TIMER ON FOR 10 MIN TWICE A NIGHT . USES NOT POWER i THINK ITS 2 WATT AND MOVES 14 LITRES A MIN.i EMPTED TANK AND GLUE THE PUMP TO THE BOTTOM WITH WATER PROOF EXTREME GLUE AND GLUE THE HOSE TO THE TOP OF THE HOT SIDE. ONLY THE WIRE COME OUT OF THE TANK DRILL A SMALL HOLE AND USE THE GLUE TO SEAL THE WIRE IN THE HOLE SOME WERE AT THE TOP OF THE TANK. THIS ONE i USED
