AW2,
im not tryin to suck up to you or anything but people are always comin down on you as if you were really an
[hr]
.. Me, personaly, and looks like alot of other members think your class act. You always respond to my posts quickly with good advice and your usually the first one. Sometimes people dont like to hear the truth though, i know sometimes i dont but its good advice! And thank god you have a great attitude about peopel always raggin on you too cause if it were me i might get a bit upset you always keep your cool.
Anyway enough braggin bout you...Kepp up the good work and thanks for all the help you have given to me
Now to the questions...
1. I finally got my tank all setup with some exceptions. so without further a do. tell me if this is right... in my wet dry there are 3 chambers the dirty water in chamber # 1 dripping over to the bio balls in chamber #2 then to the clean water (return pump) in chamber #3. i have a large out of sump protein skimmer. The skimmer pump should go into chamber #1 and drain into chamber #3 correct??
2. in my overflow box the 2 pvc pipe's actually in the box with the water sucking the water down i think are too long. because every soo often you can see it suck a little air, and also it will spit the air out in my wet/dry(very loud and annoying)should i trim these down somehow?
3. I have 50 pounds of base rock in my tank and im going to add another 40-50 pounds of live rock( as soon as anyone wants to sell me some) how long (i know all cycles vary) will or should my cycle last?
4. For the aggressive setup that i want to achieve i was wondering about the flow in my tank. My return pump is putting out about 600 gph, i have a 800 gph powerhead in the right corner and a 1000gph powerhead in the left corner is this overkill? will fish be able to handle this much water movement..the water movement looks powerfull in the tank?
5. my salinity is at 1.017...a bit low, so should i just keep adding gradually and testing??
alright enough for now...
Thanks in advance!!
