Magik's 75 gal upgrade!

Things in the tank are finally settling down. I have been having a few problems with algea but it is getting much better. I'm just waiting for my reactors to come in so I can runn GFO and Carbon.

Sometimes at night the overflow gets messed up. the return outpumps the overflow. It takes several restarts to get it right again. I'm not sure if there are power issues or what. (maybe at night the power flickers)

Bought a few more corals. I took back the Hog Fish, they were becomming bullies. I had a really neat Goby that is hard to get in and of course it jumped out of the QT between the glass and the filter. Ugh I think the big dog got a fishy treat.









Some of my older corals. they have improved under the T5's

Well, turns out it is my Pump that is failing. It has only been running for a couple of months.
I can not use my Skimmer or ATO because of the water level getting to high in the sump, the skimmer just overflows and the ATO is screamin in the middle of the night.

I'm rather ****ed off because there is no warranty available unless I go directly to the manufacturer and my emails to them are not getting through.

My tank was just starting to look great and now I'm back to cyano, hair algea and bubble algea. I've been waiting weeks for reactors and supplies to come in. I'm almost ready to quit.

any recommendations for a GOOD return pump please! let me hear it. Speedwave is NOT it!

Sorry to hear about your troubles, but OMG, don't quit, your tank looks amazing!! Been following from the beginning and just love your rock work!
Not a lot of experience with all the pumps yet, but I thought Mag Drives and Eheims were pretty much both proven staples of our hobby.
Good luck!

I would go with the ehiem 1262 reliable and good flow for your system oh ya and ultra quiet, and parts a readily available at the local fish store.
