After about a year of neglect (no lights/just Koralias to keep it from going stagnant I finally re-did some things and got her running again. First I rebuilt my sump without a fuge. I think think I was getting minimal benifits from it and it made my return are so small I was having to add water every day. Now it looks like this...
I cleaned out the skimmer, soaked all the pumps, powerheads and heater in vinegar and cleaned them. Upon reassembly my to Koralias fell appart
. I did however lear about a chines made pump that functions like a Vortech at about a 3rd the price made by Jebao. I picked a WP25 for ~100 and it is fantastic. It moves a ton of water, is silent, and has controls much like the Vortech.
The display tank was down about 20 gallons of water, so I got that topped off and the salinity where I like it, let it run a couple days, and check all the water perimeters and everything looked great.
Over the week I started restocking. A good cleanup crew, six line wrasse, Tail Spot Blenny, and Midas Blenny. So far so good.
