Hog Head Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 My last nem (lta) just floated around until it got sucked into a k4. Now I have mp40's. How can I keep from having a repeat experience? Thanks, Eugene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cellowithgills Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 Don't Vortechs have covers? You could always try throwing it and a rock in the sump until it attaches, then put it back in the DT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't thought about the sump. I only have 48w of t5 down there. Would that be enough to sustain it until attachment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frlejo Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 u could always put some filter media over the back of the pumps, where the water is sucked in. once he settled in, could prolly remove it, since it would get clogged up eventually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vortechs have a foam sleeve to cover the inlet portion. Same idea just different material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
