But I will have LR, Chaeto, pods and sand in this area. 10x still look ok?
But going with this 1x volume, my flow should be 2-3 GPH (est. 2-3 gallons of water in 'fuge area)? How could I achieve this? Don't you need some...
Just wondering, I used the fine sand and I adjusted the powerheads so they didnt stir up the sand. The sand settled and my tank cleared, but I...
6-10 times entire sump or just the 'fuge? My sump has a mesh sock and skimmer in one side, 'fuge on the other with return section in middle....
Just curious as to what the optimum flow would be through a 'fuge with a DSB, cheato and some LR
Cool! Thanks all!
Did do a "Fish" cycle using the One & Only. Ammonia and 'trites are following right on schedule. Just noticing a lot of diatoms, not much cyano,...

Nice shots! Mike is great! Helped me out tremendously and always answered me quickly! I will be using him again on my 20gal long build I'm starting...
I already have a fish in the tank with the "One and Only." Feed small ammounts of food twice daily.
I started a "fish cycle" with Dr. Tim's One & Only. Has been a week and noticed a spike in ammonia that is falling and nitrite which is now peaking....
I think the return section is too small. You will notice the evaporation of the tank expressed here. With only 7", you may be filling the return...
Coming along nicely!
Just curious, is dosing ok, or are reactors the way to go? Getting a little cramped in my sump...
