Thanks Carlo i guess i can see about lower the flow. that's probably the case i believe the overflow max 780gph and the pump is 800gph or something like that plus head-loss
If i was you i'd move everything over to the 90g and slowly leave the new lights on longer every week or so maybe by another hour every week. I'm not really sure as i havn't upgraded a reef before but that's what i've read
i'm guessing i have too much flow just because it's rated for so many gallons doesn't mean it's going to be quiet at that much flow. huh?
Does it matter what i use for plumbing? I read somewhere that flex PVC is better then hard PVC.
Hey guys, At first i was sure i wouldn't have a sump on this 55g but the longer i wait i start to think about getting it drilled (if i can) But i wanna ask does anyone have a drilled tank in their bedroom? because my 20g is so loud i turn off the return pump just so i can talk... I know most of...
Hmm i was on the RC trying to get info on lighting i read a post saying VHO are outdated and t5's are the best type out there. Has anyone ran both VHO and t5 which one do you like better? T5 48" bulb is 54w, VHO 48" is 110w?
Thank you Matt,
You anwsered alot of the things i was worried about.
The hood i've pretty much got how i want it to look. I've just gotta find the lights and then buy some wood ;)
Would it be hard to take apart a fixure? I found a 4xt5 fixure.
Hmm... I'm sure my parents would rather me have t5 for the electricity part. I thought you had to have like a bunch of bulbs to get the same effect as MH... So you only had 4x54w t5 bulbs and you kept a clam??? i would of thought you needed like 8... Whats the difference from t5,VHO and t6?
I found this on eBay. It looks like plug and play. But is it good? I seen the lamp on the left has alittle rust or something on it.
