Bubbles, lots of them

No Prob!!!

 

ok, about the maxijet 600... where would i put this? would i remove my filter and replace it with this one?

 

should these changes be made now, that im cycling, or when i finish cycling? im asking because if i do it now wouldnt i ruin the cycle? but, then again, would it do any damage later to the future fish?

 

You would add a maxijet 600 pump, you would be replacing it with the current one on the left chamber. Thats a mod that many people have done to improve the flow. The they add a hydor deflector to the tip of the nozle to make the water come out in a semirandom motion. Now this wont mess up your cycle. And no it wont kill any of your fish as long as you give it a nice wash with Tap water to remove any possible fabrication oils and debris.

 

Squirt - how long has this cube been set up? Many times when you first fill a tank you'll have bubbles all over the place from filling it but they should dissipate with water movement. Is the return piping exposed to the air at all? If there's a joint that isn't tightly seated it's possible it could be sucking air.

 

this sounds good to me. im actually interested in the semi-random motion, i think its preferable than the water shooting straight into the glass and/or rock... should i get this filter, the fiber floss and rubble rocks now? what about all at once?

 

its going to be a month on the 16th.

what is the return piping?

 

the pump that is shooting the water back into the tank is called a return pump, the tubes connected to that pump is called the return piping. If we can find cured live rock rubble, then it really dont matter when its added, remember only a lil amount is gonna be needed. Filter floss should be good to go whenever you can get it. And the we shall find out how to fit some activated carbon if were gonna replaced the cartridge.

 

ok... thanks!
