    500 gal reef converted to 850gal reef

    Wouldn't more water being pumped back mean that it falls through the overflow faster and hence return back to the pumps in the same rate that it is sent?

    Airation? Protein Skimmer?

    All I know about skimmers is they take a few weeks to break in to a stead level. Really hard to think how to get more air without a sump. How do you run a tank without a sump. I know how but how can it be healthy?

    IS this Live Sand of Algea Sand???

    I thought a "LIVE" sand bed was best? Say just read a Thread from Fishman77 and it looks like he is starting to have the same situation. I guess that I want to know what a live sandbed looks like. I think I saw a Thread months ago were one of the Shank members did a test of substrats to see...

    things in sand?

    I think we have the same deal. BUT we both need more people to figure out if for sure it is a good thing (like live sand) or a bad thing. I have the bubbles too. Take a look at my Thread Fishman77 under AREIJIN: IS this Live Sand of Algea Sand??? Sorry but I don't know how to make a link to it.

    IS this Live Sand of Algea Sand???

    Newly setup to me. The sand is the same from when I bought it from somebody and it was five years old at that time. Looking at a couple of pictures I had of the old setup I can see the same stuff but in much less of a quantity.
