    That sucks! When I saw the sump was over 2x the DT size I thought, now this is where it's at! Even with a controller sometimes, "life will find a way", around all measures and destroy your environment.

    Good to hear to wasn't too devastating and that the new SPS are happy, lookin' good.

    Why are they hard to keep alive? I also just got one about 2 weeks ago.

    Well now I have completely gone off the deep end. :crazy: Just ordered an Ecotech Radion LED fixture for my tank. Should be here in a couple of days!

    I have the same set up, so I run 2 return pumps. You may need to throttle them back a bit but, it will save your tank!

    Do you run them as separate returns or plumbed into a single return line?

    I run them seperate. I have one that feeds my chiller but I don't need to have that running in the winter so I just leave the tubing attached and shut the chiller off when I don't need it. I have valves on both lines so I can adjust each one independently of the other.
