    Return Pump question, big dilemma need opinions

    I agree with what Phyl said, creating a manifold for future projects or reactors would be awesome. But also having 6" left in the sump is fine and all but that's your first issue Try only having 3 or 2 inches left. I have about 2 inches when my pump is off. This also allows me to make larger...

    Return Pump question, big dilemma need opinions

    You can do a couple things. You can add more water to your sump. When my pumps are off my sump is 95%full. When it's running all that water goes down to the "opperating level". Not sure how else to explain this. You can go with the smaller pump. You've already said you didn't want to, but...

    My 120 Gallon Tale

    Thanks. I used to have problems with my Achilles and a Desarjini Tang but when I tore apart my tank to treat my corals I took the Desarjini to Will at Aquatic Obsessions. He was very aggressive and would chase everyone. Now there aren't any issues with aggression. Once in a while my hippo will...

    Anyone use those MJ MODS?

    If you want to mod a maxijet ... definitely go with the ones Darren(dnov99) recommends. I've tried others and when I seen his I thought they were great. The only reason I didn't go ahead and get them was because of the amount of wattage each uses.

    Mounting frags underwater

    I mount them to a reef plug or disc. Boston AquaFarms. I leave them on the sandbed for 2-4 days as to acclimate them to the lighting in my tank. Then depending on where I want them to go I put the end of the plug in a hole or something. Or if they're going on a flat surface I cut the end off...

    Start of my Oceanic 215 build

    Harry, sometimes the bulkhead being too tight causes the leaks. The bulk head should be put on by hand and then tightened with the tool only a half turn. I think your problem is only that the bulk head is not centered. Loosen it, center it, and then srew it back on.
