    Lock Line Return Flow ?

    So Brian, you think it would be best to run 3/4" supply line "y'ed" into (2) 1/2" lock lines? That way Ill keep some presure for current?

    Lock Line Return Flow ?

    I was wondering if I should use 3/4" or 1/2" lock line on my sump return. I plan to use a Mag 9.5 for the return, then use 3/4" black flexible tubing from the pump and "y" it into the tank with two return lines with lock line. Should I step it down to 1/2" lock line for better flow? The chart...

    20g Sump Design

    Thanks for the math Meche, I think I need to experiment with baffle design. I dont think my design will work like I have drawn. but as its drawn I have about 2.9 gallons for overflow. Not enough...

    Anyone else have a Mag 9.5 or larger that operates in 4" of water without a vortex?

    20g Sump Design

    Id like to bump that depth from 8.5" to 7.5", that would help with the overflow problem.

    20g Sump Design

    Hello All, I've read through many of the sump threads on this site and I've come up with a sump design that I think will work for me (at least it will fit in my cabinet). From the last thread I posted I decided to abandon the Rubber Maid sump idea and go with a glass tank. The main question i...

    Jawfish stupid question

    Lee, I think your right. I went through the huge explosion of pods when the tank was cycling, so I know what pods look like. These critters I'm referring to look like miniature shrimp, white/pink in color. They don't seem to get bigger than an 1/8" long. So I think your right that they are...

    Red Cyano?? (Asparagopsis)

    Well, my plan at the moment is to keep siphoning out the fuzz and bubbles carefully. I plan on adding a sump soon and a phosphate reactor to the sump, so at that point maybe Ill take the rock out and "scrub" it clean. Get a fresh clean start... Thanks for all the input!

    Red Cyano?? (Asparagopsis)

    Thanks for the info steve. I have been siphoning the algae out with every water change, even shutting the powersheads off and scrubbing the rock while siphoning. That works for a week or so, but it grows back in force in time for the next water change. So maybe a combination of a few turbo...
