I am using 2 overflow boxs and have removed 1 1" syphon tube from each and they seem to be working fine I was even able to turn up my return pump a little to increase circulation thanks again :jumping: :jumping:

OK cool thanks

I read somewhere that when you turn out the lights over a refugium tank the plants then take oxygen from the water.......if this is the case then how many hours should you leave these lights on /off ? at the moment I have them on 24/7

thanks for your help squidd that makes perfect sense I have a magdrive 950gph for my return and the 2 x1" always get bubbles large enough to break the flow

I am having trouble with the siphon tubes always getting air bubbles and thus reducing the flow of water back to my sump which in turn causes a low water level in the sump for my return pump which then pumps micro bubbles throughout my tank!!! I have adjusted the flow rate of my return pump to...

I am a relative newbie to saltwater and just thought I would post up some pics of my 125g reef setup after I added the 18 gallon refuguim,The refugium gets its water from 2 sources 1 from main tank via overflow box and the other from the main tank via wet/dry filter which is then pumped to my...

Thanks CELACANTHr for the fast reply yes the main thing we want to do is throughly sterilize everything pertaining to the tank before starting again I will dump the old sand and will get new live sand The wet/dry system I have on our reef tank works awesome and has done so since setting it...

Yes, about a 1" fine sand.

Ok heres the deal, bottom line is our 120 gallon fish only tank crashed big time killing everything. I want to make some changes to the filtration system before getting it set up again , currently it is running 2 large fuval filters and 2 prism hang on skimmers I want to dump the fuvals and go...

Ok so we've got our 110 gal tank cycled and had the water tested by our lfs and added a cleaner crew Ive read elsewhere in the forum that its best to test and log the results so we ordered the following test kits Salifert pH Test Salifert Ammonia Test Kit Salifert NitrateTest Kit Salifert...
