  1. Few pictures of the "Junk Tank" it's a 40B thats in the garage. I call it this because it houses all the odds and ends. Macro Algae, Corals that are not looking so good for one reason or another. Corals I just bought and acclimating them to my system, ect......
  2. With the pump that's "overkill" T it back into the sump if you can. I ended up making a manifold that T's off the main return that runs my CaRx,, Chiller, two reactors, a frag tank and have two ball valves for expansion. Just an idea. Good luck with the project. Be sure to take some pictures.
  3. Here are a few pictures of how I did mine. Also Was recommended be another person to have a drain in your plumbing under the house. Something you could flush out every so often. hope this helps. PS. Should say this is one of the best things I have done. Now all the mess and noise is in the garage. Under the house Drain To the tank Sump Room
  4. I did the same thing (remote sump). Why don't you make sure everything is done besides the drilling of the holes under the tank (floor). Meaning get the sump ready in the garage, run all the plumbing to the tank under the house and last drill two holes in the floor to the tank. What return pump you running? Are you positive you have enought gravity that the water will not back-up and flood the house? Are you going with a larger sump?
  5. Figured I should update this since it's asked so often. Keep in mind I also dose Kalk in my ATO. Reactor PH 6.52 / Tank 7.9-8.2 Effluent 60-70 AP regulator set at 5.25 / 6psi All parameters are holding at: Alk 8.3 Cal 440 Mg 1375 Thanks again for the help.
  6. Update, Adjusted it today to effluent to 60 ml Per min and set AP regulator to 5. PH in reactor is 6.62 Will keep testing daily. Thank you!
  7. I'm also going thru the same thing. My HQI socket is shot on one side. I have went 3 days without light on one side with no ill effects. The socket is cheap ($10.00). Corals will be fine for a few days without light.
  8. Thank you guys very much for the advise. Hopefully I get it dialed in without killing everything. Thanks again, Trent
  9. This is my First time setting a reactor. Have had it on line for a few days. Would like someone with experience to look over the info and make sure I'm doing it right. 120 gallon SPS tank (150 gallon sump) 270 gallons total water volume. Kalk in a 32 gallon Brute can, Tunze ATO. Run 24/7 GEO 612, Extra Course Media AP regulator set on 9.5 (I think that means 1 bubble every 9.5 sec.)? Current Parameters. ALK 8 Cal 430 MAG 1400 PH in tank 8.3, in Reactor 6.66 (on a controller) Effluent PH 14 40 Mil. per min coming out of the Effluent. Not sure if its keeping up with demand. Too Early to tell. Today test results are the ones posted above and will go from their. Any suggestions? Picture is for Reference of stock (Picture is about 4 months old, more growth now). Thanks in advance

  20. Sorry excuse for a sump. but that's what it came with. Dude, that was last months adventure. I have this ADHD thing going. I only work 3 days a week (get paid for 40 hours). No wife or kids at home. Way to much time on my hands. I'm now on to something else. Let's get this sold. Back on topic...... :p
  21. Here we are again. Buyer backed out. (flame) Anyways this sale is for Tank, Stand, Canopy and sump. Tank is located in Redmond Oregon. Buyer has to pick it up. I will not deliver.(nono) asking 675.00 firm Video's are to show condition of the tank. I realize it's a little bit of a drive (price reflects). Someone needs to get this out of my garage.(wife) Better Picture... Video of it all cleaned up, just click on it.
  22. Have not found any reviews on this skimmer so here is my attempt. First off this thing is a Monster, well built. I hope it skim's as well as it is in the Brute can. Too breaking-in the new skimmer. Placed it in a 44 gallon Brute trash can. Have been pouring old Skimmate in their. Hope this helps speed up the process? Have a Sump just for the skimmer on the way. will keep this updated. Video PS don't laugh at the music kids thought it was funny.
