I removed water... I added water.
do you "know" you need a chiller? Many ways to get by without one.
Hey Rocket man.... I had a Tunze ATO.... well there is a write up out there that I did. I added an extra pump and did a continuos water change daily...
Depends.... what chiller do you have? I had a Artica DB-75 on my 90g with a Mag 9.5.... the problem is that the chiller could not handle full flow......
And I just want to add... you are asking such a broad question that a yes or no is useless. There is such a ton of things to do for nitrates. Vodka...
I see. If you want to go used... get the 250... much better skimmer. Two sicce pumps will be about maxed out on a 300g sytem. Just my opinion.Some...
There is no need. Using the return pump sets up a recirculation. You are feeding the fuge with partly cleaned up water from the skimmer. You are...
Don't bother with check valves. There are tank volume calculators around and there is one on this site. So your return pump lines go back up to the...
Niether. The ASMs are overrated and the Octo would be hell with the two Sicce pumps figuring out if both are turning correctly. For the same money...
Not a lot wrong with that. I might suggest some minor tweaks. Make your bubble traps 1.5" wide. So 3" total. They will be more effective. Nothing...
I would not really say counter currents are the best. It's a dated design. Easy to make though. Seems lots of folks DIY beckett skimmers. Seems to be...
^^^ That would be really bad. Good work. Looks Great.
Sweet.
Oh ya... and you bring up a very good point too.... if you are running a heater... then there is no bad pump. You still need a heat input and the Mag...
No it's cool... like I said it is a pretty common thing to hear about Mags. They are solid pumps. There are better, but those are not cheap. A Ehiem...
I got rid of most my LPS. Mostly all the real fleshy stuff like hammers and frogs and brains. I really like Favias and had several of those. Of...
I bought a couple off another reef forum of which we do not dare speak the name here. All I'm saying is I had no problem buying used. Solid product.
^^^Thats a pretty tall order. Softies can't handle it. Very difficult to have a mixed tank. SPS need the flow, LPS and softies don't care for it. A...
Sorry didn't see you did it. If it is enough flow then cool. If you need more reverse it.
Vortech are not even comparable to other power heads. It's the type of flow they produce not the GPH that matters. GPH is not really a good measure,...
