    Overflow rate question

    As I plan out my upgrade I was wondering how do I know the the overflow rate of the built-in overflows of the 120g tank? I have a Mag9 pump and not sure if it is strong enough.

    ATman 2500 pump

    I have a Nac-7 skimmer and today the pump stopped working, Atman 2500. I took the skimmer apart and cleaned the pump, which was clean anyway. No broken parts even the ceramic shaft is okay. It will start pumping for a few minutes and then stop any ideas? Mark

    I really cannot complain much since I did get this fixture new for $90, Deep Blue SolarXtreme 48", 4 bulb, T5 unit. The first problem, right after i got it, was one of the led bulbs went out, smack in the middle. I wrote the manufacturer and they made all the arrangements to replace the whole...

    What to do?

    Four days ago I noticed that Cyano was creeping up in the tank. I haven't had much time lately to really be on top of things so I added some Chemi clean and an aerator. In three days the cyano was gone; I turned on the skimmer and it went nuts even set to off. Last night I put the Kent carbon...

    Aquarium Fish International is no more

    Sad news. As of October 2012 the magazine will stop publication. I have been subscribing for a few years and they recently took over FAMA. Now both will be gone. Just a shame. http://www.fishchannel.com/fish-magazines/aquarium-fish-ceases-publication.aspx
