Hello boys! (and girls)
I am doing well. Just been working on the XMAS stuff. I have been trying to get my living room in tip top shape after the tank got up and everything. Plumbing piece everywhere! I am finally getting it under control and putting my house back together.
1st problem:
My drain/ sump is getting louder everyday. It was a little loud when it was first up and now it's unbearable. I have surround sound in the same room and still can't hear! It's really bad. When the pro plumbed it, he said it would be a "quiet" drain... If this is the quiet one, I would hate to hear a regular one. Any pointers on how to get it to be a bit more quiet??
2nd problem:
air bubbles and adjustments to my sump pump. This thing is driving me bonkers. Basically, I am at my wits end. basically, when you turn the sump on, the pump starts pumping but the drain takes forever to catch up and then it ends up running out of water in the pump chamber. It really sucks and I feel like I am constantly messing with my tank and pump. Any suggestions from those of you who run a sump?
Other than those things, things are going great! My fox face and trigger and doing nicely. They are both out alot and my royal gramma is doing great as well. He is out more. I set up my hospital tank today and I am using cycled water to start it off. Obviously not running carbon in it, only sponge and zeolite for help with amo. Anything else I should know? there are some PVC elbows and things in there to simulate shelter for a fish. Also, I think my trigger may have ich. I saw a white dot on his nose today. I can't tell what it could be. I have no Idea how I am gonna treat it though, and get him out of the rocks. I guess I can wait til he locks into a rock and remove the rock...
My new MH lights get her tomorrow at 12pm!!! YAY!!! I'll post picies!!
