    10G Sump/Fuge

    That's an option you could take. Yet this system could work with the design you want. All you gotta do is put the pump in the tank instead of the sump and use gravity to feed water back to the tank. Easy, simply and inexpensive. Just to keep you calm, I have tested the stated design above...

    10G Sump/Fuge

    I really don't know what size tank you have or what size of sump you trying to make. But here's a thought. I haven't been following this thread lately b/c I changed my mind completely. I made this for perhaps only $20-25. No drilling and it works perfectly and it is quite easy to make...

    10G Sump/Fuge

    I've decided that my tank could benefit from having a sump/fuge due to its small size. Since I'm new at this; it would help me keep water parameters in check and in general, stablelize water quality better. Besides I might like the look of it. So, I bought the tank: $10 I plan on doing the...

    Deep Sand Bed in a 24G AP

    Yes, it does. I've been thinking as to how much live rock I want to put in my tank. I want enough b/c I want it to be the main filtration but I also want to live room for fish and inverts. Have you switched you stock pump? Done any other modifications? Do you know anybody that has a...

    Deep Sand Bed in a 24G AP

    Tankz for the welcoming and the links. No that was the only explanation I got, the first time I only got a plain "No, a deep sand bed in a 24G Ap wouldn't do any good." Now thinking about it I might just go with a 1" deep sand bed. Tankz, Yuri.

    How to Make a Safe Water Change for Fish

    Tankz. I think I got it, for the daily top off of evaporated water (from heat..etc.) you can just add water w/out salt since the salt does not evaporate? So the only thing you gotta make sure is to match temperature? But how we come to a controversy, which one is better for a reef system...

    Deep Sand Bed in a 24G AP

    Hi there,I'm new to this forum, I'm in the process of setting up a 24G Aquapod tank, I've got 2 questions: Does anyone have a 24G Aquapod with a deep sand bed? Does it help out the tank? I was told on another forum that a deep sand bed on a 24G AP wouldn't do any good because the water would...

    How to Make a Safe Water Change for Fish

    Fantastic article, tanks for taking the time to write it, I know a lot of people will benefit from it. What do you mean by ^^, after you add the new water (w/ salt, temp and ph matching tank's water) you can just add distilled water without adding salt to it? Tankz, Yuri.
