I'm familiar with that problem. I had bubbles too, but never to the point where the U-Tube lost its flow. I remedied that problem by installing a...
That's about 300 miles away, Optimist. Pompano beach is on the East coast, in Broward County. :(
I find that with the narrow nozzles on the ends of the returns entering the tank, deriving your flow from your return is not possible. Hence the...
That's clever! I'm so glad I got my drilled 90. :)
If he did it as I used to do it before I learned about a standpipe (I made my first overflow box), he most likely filled the tank side, used a glass...
*I* guessed that was the case. :)
While we're at it, Mission's post brings up a great point. The aqualifter model only works in instances where the overflow is set up properly--where...
Not true, Brandon. The siphon doesn't depend on the U-Tube being longer on one side. It depends on the height difference between the two bodies of...
Oh yeah? Well I run a 5.4 liter Triton with electronic fuel injection! :)
You just identified the problem. You can now solve it by lengthening your standpipe, or your U-Tube.
I believe the phrase "My Loss, Your Gain!" was coined on eBay. You're doing the guy a favor. After all, he'd just have to set the thing out...
If you aren't cleaning water off the walls, or knocking down liverock with the flow, then more power to ya! Keep it as is. Unless you have a...
Brandon1023 knows of what he speaks. A properly set up U-Tube driven overflow will not break siphon. If it does, it's because it's not set up...
Howdy. Welcome back to the dark side. Things have changed. What called for one wallet, now requires two. Speaking of which, may I consider a...
Magnetic ballasts use coils of wire to transform voltages from the incoming 120 to the higher voltages and currents needed to drive HID lighting....
If you're taking all the LR from your 46 and putting in your 90, I think with newly mixed saltwater, you'd be ok to move everything. That's a mighty...
You should be fine for a starter coral or two, but make sure you have ample water movement. If you have done a water change or two, your alk, calc...
Yes. It's completely normal. Fish use coloration through innate behavior for various reasons. You might see drastic or subtle changes in color...
I went through some doubt deciding if this was the right thing to do. For the finished product, I'm convinced the $400 is very well spent. Just...
