My preference would be to use the method where you have a little bit of control over flow rate, as opposed to locking yourself in to a method of flow control that is a pain to change. If reefing has taught me anything, it's that nothing will go according to plan, and to be able to tweak parameters easily (in this case adjustment in flow rate) help keep more hair in your head and out of your hands in clumps.

a ball or gate valve might give a little more flexibility than a diameter reduction.

at this point, I want to chunk in an otter to show them whats up.

at this point, I kind of want to chunk a damsel in there just to show the clowns what's up.

just curious, why not one container instead of two? More bulkheads = more failure points.

FEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Why do clownfish have to be such jerks? The firefish will venture out, and get chased back into the rockwork, repeatedly. I suppose I could throw the clownfish back in timeout, or give the chasing another day or two to see if it's simply a reaction to being released. My optimism is no longer. womp womp.

The arc hivemind has spoken. Don't do it bro!

I used to get a flash on mine when powering down (a capacitor is discharging all the juice to reduce shock/fire hazard). Is your ballast dimmable? If so, it probably has to do with a voltage source not being applied. If not, there's really not a whole lot to be done aside from checking connections, and then individually testing each LED.

Whole lot of risk involved in taking gulf sand (nasty chemicals, undesirable critters, etc). My vote is no.

I'll have 2 ( iphone 4, 16 and 32 gig.) on friday if you want to PM me maybe we can work out a deal.

I've not had experience manifolding 2 sumps together via a pipe like that. What happens in the event that something from the fuge blocks that pipe? I would think that water would stop flowing into that overflow and instead go into the emergency overflow. Sorry, just typing through my thoughts there. Different, for sure, but I don't see anything wrong with it based off of this drawing.

So i removed the clowns from the breeder net for a trial period last night. Of course the firefish immediately retreated to the rockwork, so we'll see how things are when I get home. The firefish was active outside of the work for several days, so I'm optimistic that things will work out.

Why don't we use HOB filters in reef set ups?

Any tips for installing a tank on Wood flooring?

Definitely nothing porous (carpet underlayment, etc). I don't have anything under mine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Lucky! I have a pair of clowns that refuse to host anything. Looks awesome.

Welcome, glad to have you! I spend some of my time around the oilfield and the refineries in south texas as well. An apex has proven invaluable to be able to remotely control my tank.

The Firefish is adjusting nicely with the clowns sequestered. We shall see though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

not natively, but there are a few 3rd party apps that will do in a pinch (rover). Sorry I can't be of any service on android.
