ph is 8.0
i have my return line which runs into the tank.... flow is adequate but could be more... there is definately a fair bit of flow in there but it seems to be primarily in specific areas i have a 3 inch pvc pipe in my sand bed for my morays im worried there isnt enough flow going past the openings of the tubes thus providing oxygen to the eels. the fish seem fine , but they swim around whereas the eel stays primarily in his pipe

Can you run your skimmer air intake out a window or something?Maybe not enough fresh air in your house.Or you can aim an existing pwr head at the surface to cause waves.

on my Euroreef i have a line running out in a window down in the basement and i can get my tank from 8.0 to 8.2 easy in a day it works great for me. I have 2 pumps running on so having one for sucking fresh air is a piece of cake.....

actually it doesnt bring the temp down hardly by the time the air hits the skimmer its warm again. its the fresh o2 that you want its a cheap way to brign the ph up..... i used ro line
