Does the tank have a bracing on top?

See thats where ive had a problem, how to keep heat and how to get water movenent

Wrong garrett bra

wont your banded and pistol have problems?

anyone interested in wavemaker for 30

Yeah, the water doesnt have much to distance to push, even once in the tank

Idl tho probably even a 3 would do it a 5 youd probably valve down

Id look at mag pumps a brand new 5 or 3 would tear it up

i can do it before or after work tomrrow

still trying to get rid of koralia smartwavemaker 40$ http://www.marinedepot.com/Hydor_Koralia_Smart_Wave_Pump_Controller_External_Wavemakers_for_Aquariums-Hydor_USA-HD00924-FIWMEW-vi.html

As far as different i probably would have done new sand but since you cleaned it your probably in the green, your lighting might need to be upgraded depending on your corals of choice. Your really going to want to focus on slowly dropping heat to 74-78 as well but those are basic rules of thumb. Also i saw the question mark sfter refractometer, it measures salinity based on light reflecting through the water and is the best way to measure salinity besides extremely exspensive computer one

Also i noticed as far as feedings you can probably feed less as overfeeding is what caused the algae before it causes high nitrates and phosphate. I only feed once a day for about 2 mins worth unless they need veggie clip too

Temps high, if your doing just fish your salinity is good if you are going reef you need to raise it, po4 and no3 pr whatever po is phosphate thr other is nitrate. Macro algae is like seaweeds the idea id you grow it to prevent micro algae the bad stuff to grow. Nice set up overall, youll need more flow as the pump you have isnt the best on msrket so some additional powerheads will help

i think he meant not into a powerhead but into the return from the aio area like the locline that sticks out but im not sure

add a set of the three baffles right before pump and your all good, if needed take away from refugium, or refugium baffle

id also interested in trading/ im looking for - mag drive either 5 or 7 40b ( or dimensions similiar) sump refuge lighting t5 ficture

what if my tank is a HOB filter, haha thatd throw you for a loop, either way if we can or not i plan on nothing but frequent water changes

i have 4 1400gph koralia powerhead that id sell for 35$ each as well as the Koralia smart wave wave maker for 50$ everything is less then 6 months old and has already been cleaned so its ready to go!!! also ide sell all 4 and wave maker in package for 160$

ice age fossils; collected the **** out of um

would you sell sump seperate?

would you sell just sump?

wow yeah thats quite a difference in amps >.< and thats how you blow a fuse running that with the halides, do you know how many amps your system is drawing already? that would be a big concern too, thered be two routes id go, bigger is better most of the time so i would want the bigger of the two but that would mean that changing the electrical would probably be the better choice for tbhe 20 amp circuit. or running the plumbing for the chiller to a different outlet even if possible. Do you use any fans on the halides or anything to lower temps too or just the chiller, and how precise do you plan on letting it run? with no fluctiations?

do they take in to acount ambient room temps in calculater, and if you went that small as in the 1/10 youd have it run atleast twice as often with near the same power consumption, idk really know just my thoughts

the only reason i ditched mine, and decided no more shrimpys is because theyd steal food from my corals and harass my nems
