Fkshiu – I’ve only had it a week or so. It has not come on yet since my tank generates so much heat, I only need heaters in the dead of winter. I also cut the heater element of a won bothers and put a three prong plug on it and plugged it into the Aquamedic so that may alter it’s performance.

Van-rookie – They are not RS but I took a chance that he would not nip at the corals and I lucked out. He leaves the hermits alone but has gone through all my snails.

You can see it in the latest pic but it's not great. I'll keep working on it.

Not sure when but back when my D70 was not working I changed the sump/fuge, return pump, skimmer feed, ATO, and phosban rector feeds.


This pic is what I had before, A 40g long. You can see the float valve I had for ATO fed by my Kalk reactor. That's my old ASM G2 but my new skimmer was feed by a Mag 5 and my phosban reactors that were not in this shot were both fed by a MJ900.





A old shot of the mess it had become


In these shots I took today you can see I now have a 75g and took out the fuge and baffles and now have a open sump. I could not keep any macro's alive in the fuge since using ReefResh and didn't like how the light from the fuge would grow coroline on the skimmer and other equipment so I took it out.

I plumbed in a manifold to get rid of all the pumps I had in the sump to feed the skimmer and PB reactors. The sump has a two inch bulkhead in the bottom right that feeds a Dart in the crawl space, then it comes up and feeds the manifold that feeds the tank, skimmer, PB reactors and soon to be Ozone reactor. I left two open ports on the manifold incase I want to add something later.

I'm off to siphon the detritus out of the sump that you can see and scrape the glass that I have neglected for a week.
