www.fishnreef.com December 25, 2008 Share December 25, 2008 I'd laugh...but I've done so many things much more knuckleheaded to think that was even an issue. You're just providing nutrients for your corals...now see if the new skimmer skims it out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaironman December 25, 2008 Share December 25, 2008 Pretty soon, it will be like its sister/brother tank in behind. Notice the behind tank is very clean now and no longer has aiptasia. Good job Bob! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanman December 25, 2008 Author Share December 25, 2008 poor thing - had to install a brand new skimmer - boo hoo! Actually - it wasn't 'new' - it was just new to that tank. I got that Deltec from Steve a while back, and was running it on the 58-gallon system (skimmer capacity 600 gallons). So - I put the Deltec in the 240-gallon system, and put the GreySeas (capacity 400 gallons) in the 58-gallon system. VERY tight fit. I was using a smaller GreySeas in the 58, but it's still having impeller problems. Fortunately, the sump in the 240-gallon system is much cleaner. bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
