Ahh ok. So really it just that regular I/O does not have high enough calc, alk & mag for your liking, and not that there is anything wrong with it ;)
I would try another 750 and see how it does. I have 2 750's and 2 550's in my 46 bow for reference. No sump though, so that is where all of the flow...
If you have a pressure gauge, that would be the best indication. When you are making water, the pressure will drop slightly with new filters. As they...
What size tank? A lot of corals actually need good flow!
Agreed on the parts. The difference is the filters they come with, but you can obviously change these out (and need to anyways). I just replaced the...
Longest double post ever! :) Excellent update and nice work. Just curious, what have you heard negative about Instant Ocean?
Just curious, did you keep him in an acclimation box inside the tank for a day or two to give the existing wrasse time to get used to the new one?...
I have the same skimmer on my 28 nano, and the only times I had overflow issues was when the filter was clogged, having it turn on too soon after...
I put a request in for a Midas at my LFS; hopefully he comes in today!
I have an Eshopps refugium, which has black acrylic panels to separate the skimmer, 'fuge, and return compartments. I highly recommend this as my...
Hopefully mine is the exception to the rule then! My Tiger Wardi is going on 4 months, and is fatter now then when I bought him (and growing!). But I...
I hated my Super Skimmer! I replaced it with an Eshopps PSK-100H and am a million times happier with it! I have this on my 46 bow, so I would...
+1, as you know I am a big fan of their skimmers :)
I really like my Eshopps R-200 sump/refugium. They have regular sumps, but I would spend the extra few bucks on the refugium models. This is the only...
Oh ok, that makes sense now! Keep up the good work :)
Good deal. I haven't seen these for PVC yet; good to know they exist! I wouldn't be afraid to use them :)
Why did you add salt to your top-off water? Are you looking to increase your salinity? Otherwise, you should only top-off with regular RO/DI water.
Unless you are talking about something else, the Shark Bite fittings are made of bronze; a big no-no for SW tanks! I have used them on copper piping...
I think the main benefit of them would be to be an easier transition on the fish from going from bright lights to pitch black. I know some fish will...
What size tank is that? Its a good size tank, yet the Chevron and Naso don't look like they have too much swimming room... Beautiful tank BTW!
