In designing my sump I keep questioning the size of the bubble trap. I am new at this and not a fluid dynamics engineer. My sump will be 48" x 12" with a bubble trap in the middle. All the sites I see have a 1" bubble trap. If I am pumping 2000gph will the bubble trap be able to support...

Anyone seen any good sources of black live sand? Can I even use black sand? Is there such a thing available for a small reef tank? Thanks That Guy Over There

anyone got a recommendation for tubing for an Ocean Runner 6500 pump. this one seems to rattle a lot and has blow back in the sump. Is this because I have it running 14mm tubing and fittings for an old Fluval external. if it is, what do you use and which fittings (y-pieces, elbows, outputs,...

I couldn't understand why the big brown icky presumably cyano break-out. After siphoning it up a dozen times, I went on a search, dismantled where I had last seen the elusive blue linckia, and found its puny smelly remains. Serious mess. I've changed the water, dropped in one measley Maracyn...

Not all companies do this, but Coralife sure does. Like most products, if anything is wrong you have to go to the manufacture for any kind of guarantee or service. I bought a fixture for over $500 from the local shop and they bought it from one of several places. The obvious thing for me to do...

I currently run a couple of nanos on PC and got the green light to upgrade to a 150W MH pendant since my fiancee wants to get a yummy blue maxima. Right now I have mostly softies: zooanthids, ricordia, discosoma mushrooms, 1 sarcophyton toadstool, gsp and 2 monti dig brownies. I'm going to go with...

No issues on my father's 225 gallon on Pergo for several years now. Last year, I put a 400+ gallon on mine (over cement as well) with no issues so far.

I'm running a 40 gallon reef tank with no sump, a protein skimmer, and two Maxijet 900 pumps in the upper left/right back part of the tank (hanging off the top rim of the tank). You can see the tank on the web page: http://www.benslade.com/reef.html My question is, are there any sort of pumps...

I got me another fish yesterday. This will be the last one for my small (20 gallon) tank. He is a lawnmower blenny. He is so ugly that he's cute. In fact, he is not just ugly, he is fugly. He keeps making funny faces, he puffs up his cheeks and opens his mouth really big, it looks like...

Hello all, I just sold my 110G Freshwater tank on eBay and placed an order for a 180G Reef tank (72x24x24) to take its place. I am having two overflows built into the back center (one drain to sump in each, and two returns in each). I am also getting a Mark Levinson style Model F sump...

What changes in PH-KH/ALK could one expect to see the first week/month after setting up a calcium reactor? I'm worried that I may see a drop in the PH. Current PH is 8.3 in the tank. After just installing a new Calcium reactor the PH reading from the reactor is 7.8. KH/ALK test results coming...
