    PH keeps dropping

    No it isn't, it's never that hot but we're in a heat wave. I've got a fan on it now to bring it down.

    Sump vs refugium

    I misunderstood. The sump comes with a skimmer. I'll most likely run the fuge first, and then sometime later add a sump (with the skimmer built in).

    Sump vs refugium

    This one comes with a skimmer and the one I have isn't so good, so it will probably replace the one I'm using.

    Sea Clone 100

    Does the Sea Clone 100 come apart for cleaning? I tried to take that black ring off but was afraid I would break it.

    Sump vs refugium

    I'll probably buy one rather than a DIY. The tank isn't drilled with overflows so it will be a hang on-overflow setup. I'll most likely go with the...

    Sump vs refugium

    I think I would plumb the refugium on its own loop, just from the main tank, into the fuge, and back to the main tank again. As for the sump, I would...
