Just so I can plan ahead for RO/DI water on hand... How much water evaporates each day out of, for example, a 55 gallon aquarium with a 20 gallon...
Sweet! Just thought I may have horribly overlooked something! Thanks!
I just added LIVE SAND to my refugium. I let it settle for about a day. The water was pretty clear. Then I turned on my pump to get the water...
Is there an optimum length one should go by for the distance your outlet pipe should be under water? How about the standpipe above water? How high?
I converted a 20 gallon long to a sump/refugium. How deep should I go with the sand and what else in there? Live Rock? A few chunks? how big? I...

Here's what I've got. Inlet on left, then refuge, buble trap, then return on right. Hope it works!!!
WAIT!!! Use this image for picturing the internal "meat" of the stand. Sorry.
Sorry to bug on this question again...I need to get this figured out soon. Please refer to the pictures of the stand again. The first is of the...
ahh....gracias.
Yeah...using a lighted fuge. Don't want any more algae than I have to have. Here's a dumb question...What exactly are PVC unions and how do they...
What is the PVC cement of choice? Is there one I shouldn't use because of any harmful chemicals?
Okay... Got my 20 gallon long sump done... Now to plumb it. I've got an overflow box ready to go with a threaded bulkhead attachment. Do I come...
