well...i set up my tank after almost a year.. have my cuc in it and everything my lr
its a octopus 150nw
but there is a problem
it wont produce any skimmate
i went to a couple of lfs to ask them about water levels to figure it out
and posted a thread on the boston site
all said about the same...
well im starting my 55 gal...just got a little bit from someone on boston reefers....
only 15lbs he hooked me up tho for 10 bucks
no sand yet..just ordered it
my question is..is if i have too much flow
i have two koralia 3's
and im going to have a mag 9.5 return from my sump
