![]() Looking good Doug! Like already said, great PE.
![]() Have you tried the Zeo PIF and/or Iron yet? I'm considering trying one or both to help with green hues. |

I like when you talk reef-dirty Mindy ![]() No, I havnt tried either one....Thought about trying the Iron ....but there is a little voice in the back of my head that says "dont feed the algae"...maybe Im just paranoid.....finally got rid of the vast majority of all the algaes in the display....except for some halimeda....but thats easy enough to pic out when it needs it, so I leave it..... I must give props where they are due....Gary, our tank guy rocks....knocked out my sump in a time I probably shouldnt post....and left a bill Im extremely happy with.....Thanks Gary So here it is, in all its shiny, clean, new glory.....54"l x 15 1/2"w x 15 1/2t..... 4" longer, 3 1/2" wider and 5" shorter than the old sump....my system volume will increase by 8 gallons and I will be able to work in the sump alot better. Same layout as the last sump...left side fuge(thinking Im gonna put a deep sand bed in this one....nut sure...waffling big time), center is the return section and the right side is skimmer ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

I cut and installed a small shelf for my high tech dosser (a la Snappy). I was balancing the dosing cup on the edge of the old sump, but I think this will work out better for me. You will have to use your imagination ... the shelf is upside down and backwards, as it was still drying when I snapped the pics. ![]() ![]() Heres the shelf installed, both before the sump was filled and installed and after. ![]() ![]() And the dosing shelf in action ![]() ![]() with the longer and wider sump, came an additional problem.... My cluster f of products and test kits and food supplements etc, etc ,etc, that were around and beside the sump would need a new home....this makes the g/f very happy ![]() ![]() ![]() Ive already found that this sump is much easier to work in and around. Another plus is, the new sump has 1/2 rigid foam schtuck to the bottom that has greatly reduced the noise caused by pump vibration....Again....happy g/f ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()

![]() Can you explain to me how the dosing cup works? Sorry if I'm just dense and not getting it. I see a cup on the shelf with a hole in it. Do you just dump the whatever into that, and let it just drain at its own rate, or is it something more involved?
