The only cone I have had is mine. A Warner Marine K2. One of the best cones on the market. It's rated from 90g to 180g. So not only is it a very...
PM sent. Shout out for Warner Marine HOB. Awesome HOBs. H1 will do 50g and a H2 will go to 90g.
So I have had the Extreme 160 for over a week now. First off... don't get confused with the SWC 160 cone skimmer. Not sure why SWC would use the same...
They are made by Royal Exclusive... same company that Vertex is under that makes the IN series and the Alpha. Just look up Royal Exclusive.
It's the Melefix. When I used it once, I did my water change and turned on my skimmer....took about 4 days for it to stop overflowing. I changed out...
No they are too short, but that is really dependent on what your skimmer needs. Most run around 8-10 inches. I usually go for 10 so you can put the...
So then, now we know all the intricate details of bubble traps.;D You mentioned you wanted the section next to the skimmer as a zone to get rid of...
At two inches you should have no problems. Why I say over under over....is for 3 baffles, I want the bubbles to go to the top of the return section...
Got it... and as always you will loose a few.... I probably have 15 or less hermits in my 90g, but they are bigger and I feed well. Plenty of snails....
same from me.
Nobody here started with all the answers. Keep reading, keep asking, and have patience. So far your LFS is giving it to you straight.... and you are...
Well...didn't know this tank was brand new. All you have is fresh salt water....chemistry is a bit off. Work on getting that in reasonable range....
Because a tank is just a vessel of water... a reef is a ecosystem.... and a mature reef is not the same as a new born reef. Way too soon to throw a...
Best ones out.
Your sum/fuge is setup the way I would. I read it wrong to mean your plumbing was somehow maximized for one side or the other. NM. So plumbing is...
Where the valve is makes no difference. I read the drawing wrong.... actually, what I was talking about is represented better in Drawing #1. Your...
4 baffles is not either then. I'm not sure what you mean by "keeping the water moving more". Bubble traps are not just baffles. Not sure how wide...
The drain in general needs to be like drawing #2. The vast majority of your flow will be open to the skimmer. Only a small amount goes to the fuge....
Because your chemistry is not balanced. Ca Mg and Alk all react with each other. They balance out, not directly but generally. Your Ca is not "too"...
How are you dosing your chems and how much. Perhaps I'm wrong about the milky water, but the fact your PH is high and your Alk is low does not make...
