![]() my thoughts exactly, I like external pumps since they usually don't transfer too much heat into the water. I think you should try the high density foam first and if its still unbearable then look for other options. That will also be the cheapest fix atm.
Another thought will be to spin the pump 45 degrees counter clock wise and and it mount onto the stand of the sump. That might alleviate the vibration from traveling through the house.

![]() Thanks, I re-plumbed the return pump and mounted to the stand with lots of foam and it is way better. I think that I will try and stuff some foam in between the stand and wall if I get ambitious.
My parameters seemed stable so I moved the crabs, two clowns and the azure damsel over this weekend along with all of the live rock from the "hospital-to-be" tank. They seem to be doing well. I ended up getting the Sunbrite LED light. I liked how it was a fixture and I didn't have to hang anything or build a rack to hang it. So far I have everything at 20% during the day and it seems to be going well. |
