Great fish pictures.
I have seen these advertised on Vancouver's Craigslist for $300-400. Based on the pictures, I think the ones advertised are the 144 W Zetlight Pro....
No problem! It is hard to describe the position of the tee, so I will attempt to illustrate it. Orient it like this: (to return on left side) II II...
Sump design: - This is a standard sump design. Some people put the refugium/ skimmer compartment in series, others (like you) separate them to allow...
Yikes, can't stand that look. I've seen a huge aquarium (200,000+gal) before like that, except it was completely over run by aiptasia. The thing...
Thanks for posting pictures! Did you see the reef tank area? I was actually pleasantly surprised by the quality of the exhibits when I visited last...
I also run a Profilux IIIex. I think it is overpriced, but I can't complain at all about the quality. It is a great controller that can do pretty...
Glad to hear you got everything working. I like the float switch safety feature.
Honestly I couldn't disagree more. If you do it that way, you raise the risk of breaking the siphon in the u-tube, which is by far the riskiest part...
I agree, probably the T. There shouldn't be an air bubble in the u-tube once you are able to open up the pump.
I cover the u-tube and exterior box with a small white towel. Not the most attractive solution, but it was easy. Coralline still grows though, so I...

I don't think animals small enough to fit between the overflow teeth are much of a concern(my overflow has ~1/4" gap between teeth) . They probably...
Pictures of the set-up would make it a lot easier to figure out the problem. I personally don't think it is the foam filter or height of the filter...
I disagree, I think the size of the pump is appropriate. If there is no air in the U-tube, then I wonder if the problem could be due to the plumbing...
Sorry, I am travelling and don't check the forum often. The only picture I have on my computer is of the Hofer gurgle buster. I don't have a...
Just make sure the flow through the U-tube is fast enough to stop any air bubbles from accumulating. I also cover the overflow box inside the tank to...
I like the ATO sound. Not because it is a nice sound or anything, it's just reassuring to know it's still working! Same goes for the dosing pumps....
$200 for the DC-5000 return pump looks like a great deal. I'm excited to see some reviews.
I started out my last tank all HOB. Eventually I converted to a sump design. If I just went to a sump in the first place, I would have saved a lot of...
