Well, we still need to hear back about the impeller; that's the big potential issue.
That's not an inner box. That's a baffle built-in to the outer box. The inner box goes inside the tank. Here's a quick refresher on typical HOB...
I would guess that he upgraded the tube to a thicker one to accommodate more flow, if anything. I want to see if he has more pics/info though.
I would hope they have multiple-millenia-old knowledge just laying around everywhere ;D
They look like occelaris clowns to me. The fact that they're swimming near each other without aggression is a good sign for their compatibility...
The biggest problem with no inner box is the potential for a lost siphon on a power outage, assuming some conditions are met involving siphon tube...
I think his "overflow" is a straight siphon, or is driven by the HOB impeller, and not a proper inner/outer box. That would be a (if not the only...
HDD, post a picture of the overflow box itself. I need to know whether it's a proper overflow box, since it looks like there's nothing inside the...
The overflow can't handle how fast the return pump is working. The return pump can always handle how much is overflowing, as (if it's built...
A ball valve on the return line is all that you need.
It's a fine mesh sock used to capture particulates before it gets into the bioballs.
You need a ball valve to attach to the return line. Use it to limit the flow going back to the tank, down to the point where that somewhat cleverly...
Interesting. Is there any break in the leftmost baffle? If not, I have absolutely no idea lol.
K, so it's either a percula or a occelaris. We don't really need to know past that atm, and they can be a bit tough to ID sometimes, especially from...
I think I'm trying to do both, as should be fairly apparent. Comparing the facts of my situations helps because it shows that it may be a normal...
What are your parameters? Nitrate and phosphate are important for these guys; they need dirtier water than most other corals.
WHICH species? Percula? Occelaris? Maroon? Clarkii? You're more likely to run into problems with clowns other than occelaris and percs. Those two...
Frogspawns, torches and other euphyllids split constantly, not just when they're stressed. It's a branching coral; their job is grow, and splitting...
It's a 4.2 liter V6, and can do 0-60 in 4.2.
Unless they're the same species of clown, they're very likely to fight. They're in too small of a space together. Even if they are the same species,...
