tank has been running since sunday afternoon, so been like 4 days, tank has rock in it and some algeas in sump, gosh the rock must be very dirty, the skiimer is really puling out some serious gunk, this skimmer is crazy i tell you, really works brillaintly, not very quiet, but cleans up well.
water is crystal clear in tank now, everything working nicely except for the noise, which is not a huge issue but want to just do things right from the beginning.
so plan is, saturday, empty tank, redo over flow plumbing to include durso, install a new much better return uplift pump and then see if this new pump causes display to overflow, lol, water level a bit high, if its a problem, will cut elbows inside tank to make them a bit shorter as suggested by the good man RiaanP above. also, have to hang light and will try sort out the scaping
wrt scaping, looking at one island slightly off centre and slight toward the back, going high up witha nice overhang, to create nice placement ares for coral and also keep lots of nice open swimming space for fish to have fun.
space is very limited in my sump, but want to try get some sort of reactor to run rowaphos or so, and also want to have a look at Bio cubes, will go checking out the shops tomorrow afternoon, any advice, help, suggestions, all welcome
