Sorry to take over your post, but what is the partial moon thing? I have one of those with one of my tanks and I have no clue what it is.

It's a retaining clip that keeps the reels from climbing the center core.

It's a retaining clip that keeps the reels from climbing the center core.

The "partial moon thing" is a collar. If you are developing only one reel, you put the reel on the column, then you put the collar on the column and push it as far down as it goes. The collar keeps the reel down low on the column so it doesn't rise up over the level of liquid in the tank.

I have many Paterson multi-reel tanks, and those collars are necessary. The agitation would cause the reels to rise up if the collars weren't there. Unfortunately, that has happened ...

FWIW, for 120 I greatly prefer these reels to the Paterson reels they are interchangeable with. The guides at the entrance to the spiral make them far easier to load with 120 film.

And if you like to worry, the screw in top to the tank is more reassuring than the Paterson versions .
