Hi All,
I have my sump in my basement. My tank is 220 gal and my sump is 60gal. (I have 3 x Nero7 in the tank so no need for alot of return power)
Im pumping about 10 feet up and about 15 to the side with couple of elbows.
I have been using VectraL2 but its always on full and barely making it...
I recently purchased a Cade 1200 S2/P from AlgeaBarn. I really like the larger width on the Cade peninsula tanks and decided to go with them vs the more expensive custom route. Im removing the stock sump and plumbing and fitting it with a DIY 60 gallon breeder and roller mat placed in my...
Hi all
I have a hypothetical plumbing question.
Let’s say you have two pipes with the same pumps running at 100%
The first pipe is 10’ long and is then reduced 3/4” for 1’. It produces 100 gph. So the total length is 11’
The second pipe is 11’ of all 3/4 pipe. Will the second pipe maintain...

My 10’x3’x2’ peninsula tank finally arrived. Along with it came a 6’ sump. The DT has an overflow on one side, 2 returns and 4 drains drilled in the overflow...
Hi all, I am looking for some advice on pump selection/plumbing configuration. I am thinking about moving the sump into my basement but I am fairly confident that my COR20 is not going to do the job. I am looking for a minimum of 400 GPH with a guestimated head of 20FT (includes height and...
I need to up my return flow on my tank to match the specs on the uv sterilizer I attached (recommends 1000 GPH/flow). Currently I'm only getting 400-450 GPH. My pump is the Jebao 10000 which can achieve 2400 GPH. One reason I believe my flow is so slow is because all the 90 bends my pvc has to...
Hello Everyone I am new to this forum and converting from Freshwater to Reef aquarium. I'm excited in my new journey but do understand that I have to make a solid decision on the way I approach the setup of this tank. So I have hard decisions in a short time. So i'm trying to help create a...
