I am going to add 2 800 GPH wavemakers in the DT. With that, should I go with the 2100 or the 2800ss
I was looking at the flow chart for the rio 2100 and the 2800ss at 4ft. The 2100 is 375 GPH and the 2800ss is 642 GPH. If I did the 2100 then that...
Then again, I may go with the refuge on one side, and T it off to the intake and protien skimmer and the return in the middle. Which is better?
Thanks skyfire, now I understand. For some reason I thought that if the overflow box has a 800 GPH, then that is how much it would send down to my...
skyfire, the next size up on the eshopp is the 800 GPH one. I think that would be to much flow running through my refugium. I see your point with...
no BoBo65, I mean $2.00. Taam Rio (Rio+) Powerhead/Pump The 1700 is 39.99 and the 2100 is 41.99
it's like $2.00 more
I don't have the money for a mag pump. The rio 2100 at 692 GPH would give me 375 GPH with a 4ft head
Looks real nice for someone who doesn't know what they are doing. Can't wait to see it finished
anyone?
so should I go with the eshopp pf300. I plan on using flex tube insted of pvc
I look at it like this, if it happens it happens. There is nothing we can do about it.
I don't know. It's not you, but I'm getting confused. Here is the link to the pump. Taam Rio (Rio+) Powerhead/Pump
I agree. I don't think the full LED light systems can have the same effect that a T5 or MH can do. I would feel better about having to change the T5...
I haven't made the stand for it yet, but I just checked and it will probably be around 4 1/4 to 4 1/2 ft. So if the pump will probably be restricted...
According to every website that I checked, the rio 1700 pump has a flow rate of 642 GPH
even with the overflow box pumping 800 GPH and the return pump pumping 642 GPH?
First off, I am doing a 40 gallon breeder tank with a 20 gallon refugium. I am thinking on getting the rio 1700 return pump that puts out 642 GPH....
or should I get an overflow that pumps less than the return pump
I think I am going to go with the eshopp pf800, pumping 800gph and the taam rio 1700 return pump, pumping 642gph. Does anyone think different? I...
