Default Re: Anodizing calculations (720 Rule)

How big are the parts?
What kind of agitation does the tank have?
Are you going by the 720 rule?
How high does your tank temp get to?

The streaky, dull, and chaulky can be caused by a number of things. Dissolution, rinsing in tap water, old sealer among others.

My tank is only 20 gallon. For now I am running a window unit into a cooling box. Some of the others I have talked to are using homemade heat exchangers or saltwater aquarium chillers with Ti cores. A chiller big enough for your tank would be very pricey. SS
