  1. thanks for replying. I just cut the whole thing open lol added a baffle myself.
  2. Okay so I have this sump. I need to install a baffle right of skimmer and one the same height on the other side. now my issue is the intake part on the left. water filled up and pours over to the skimmer area. how can I put a sock filter in there and be able to clean it? do I need to cut the top piece off? suggestions please!
  3. okay so I'm ready to purchase sand for my 90g. which sand is the best (looking for clean and white) and about how many years pounds would I need? thanks!
  4. lmfao I meant to say one H-E-double hockey sticks of a deal
  5. just picked up 3. when you buy online and pick up in store you save another 15%. after buying 3 I found a code I could of used to save another 10$ off all three lol still 27 bucks for each bucket of salt is one H-E-double hockey sticks of a deal
  6. could possibly be just that. thanks!
  7. There was a certain type of rock I saw in a sump. it was flat and long. maybe 2 inches thick. was told it holds much more bacteria than regular live rock. anyone know the type?
  8. Imy going to see if I can possible make three compartments. that would be ideal. anyone use this sump before?
  9. won't fit in the stand. wish I could
  10. So I got this sump but it originally was a wet to dry sump. the guy had the skimmer on the right and that's it. I want to put a refugium in there. I can't figure out how to modify it. any thoughts on how I could do it? can it go refugium into skimmer back into tank? or is it skimmer first then water goes to refugium back to tank? thanks!
  11. Ok so the tank itself weighs 20 more pounds, 15 more gallons of water times 8.36lbs/gallon, I have a 30g sump I am going to use so we'll say that will hold 25g of water = 354lbs of extra weight I already have the ATO now with 5g bucket so that's already there. should be a problem, I think lol
  12. Well the garage, which is underneath, has concrete walls around. So the tank is up against the wall upstairs, and underneath that same wall is the concrete that is to the ground.
  13. thanks. so I looked at the ceiling in the garage and it does look like the joists are perpendicular. and it makes sense. I have a huge kitchen island and that's sitting the same as the tank and stand. the 40g sump won't fit in my stand so have to go with a 30g sump.
  14. Hello WAMAS So I am in the mix of going from a 75g to a 90g. I have a few questions. would the stand hold the extra weight of the 90g tank? I live in an end unit townhouse built 2014. the tank is in the corner above the garage against the end unit wall. the tanks never been level (water level is higher on the left side of the tank) tank is running for 2 years. now with the extra weight in the tank and also extra weight with the 40g breeder sump I'm going to set up plus 5 more gallons from the ato water. is this safe? the tank is on the middle floor. getting a little worried now lol
  15. Yea looks like i bought the wrong size
  16. I do not. Have them one W1. What does else mode do?
  17. I installed them and have them on 4 with slow waves but they're really not that powerful. Thinking I should of gotten the rw8s :(
  18. And do I leave them on wave all day and night?
  19. Ok I got the rw4s and man they are small lol I'm sure they're powerful. How do you guys recommend I set them up? And putting one on each side facing each other the best way?
  20. Thanks for that input. I have a 75g. It's not the bio balls that I have. Those blue looking balls, that's not what I have. It's the fluval media, small rocks with holes in then. It's just so filthy inside
  21. Yea I don't know if I want to spend that much right now. I have mostly have LPS and soft corals and plan on keeping up with that.
  22. Jebao rw4 or the wp10? any better than another?
  23. Hello WAMAS, my koralia 1050 just crapped out. I have only one now working. Have a 75g tank. Should I just get a replacement for the one thats broken or just go all out and upgrade to two better ones? The vortechs, if I went with these beasts, which ones would i need and how many of them? Let me know what else you need to know about my tank. Thanks!
  24. Thanks for the video. Might invest in this. Until I figure this sump thing out and possibly start that this summer. Would it be better to remove the fluval or keep it?
