    Feeding time poll! What’s your pump strategy?

    Every option is valid it seems, I’m just trying to decide on a feeding method for me. I have Blotchy Anthias and a juvenile multi bar so my feedings need to be often and are automated with an autofeeder. My tank is a Cade 1800 S2/P at 228 gallons. Since I have a reefmat, it’s not the end of...

    RS Reef Mat Owners: Do you turn off the Reef Mat during Feed Mode?

    Just got the RS Reef Mat and noticed the level sensors on it. When I put my tank on feed mode (using GHL) the water level in my sump rises. Should I shut off the Reef Mat as well as everything else during feed mode? Thank you all for your time and input!

    GHL Feed Mode

    Hi All, so before posting I did have a look around trying to find if someone had asked this one already as it's possible I'm just being a bit slow, I have also had a dig around the GHL website and had a look for videos but i can only find one that shows how to set up one item? So I'm trying to...

    WaveEngine Feeding mode won’t activate

    I’m wondering if something is wrong with my WaveEngine. I’ve never been able to get the feeding mode to work. I’ve set it up to turn off for 2 minutes (see first pic) I’ve made sure feed more is active for my schedule (see second pic) As you can see when in feed more the pumps are still...

    Apex Feed cycle on AFS not triggering rules

    Hi all, just set up a some rules to trigger on Apex feed cycles, e.g. on my skimmer: If FeedA 005 Then OFF. These work fine when I manually trigger a feed cycle, but with my new AFS auto feeder now running to deliver one of my daily feeds, they don't run. Am I missing something or should my code...

    Get apex to control vectra feed mode

    So I know the wxm can’t communicate to the vectra and the vortechs cant communicate to the vectra either. My question is if I get a reeflink can the vortechs toggle a feed mode to the vectra. i would like the feed mode to be controlled from the apex so the feed mode would start at the wxm...

    WXM MP40 Programatic Control

    Hi all... Trying to find the right code (if its even possible) to switch my MP40's to a specific flow type, eg. Constant for a period of time when a feed cycle is triggered, haven't found a definitive answer by searching here or Google as yet. For my COR return, I have something like If FeedC...

    Does turning off return pump mess with skimmer performance?

    Hello everyone, I've only had a sumpless tank so far, now I'm finally getting a tank with a sump and I'm torn between buying: a DC pump that can decrease flow substantially, when feeding; OR an AC pump that I can just turn off when feeding. If I get an AC pump, will skimmer performance be...

    When feed mode ended, my skimmer stopped foaming... ???

    Hi all, I finally got my skimmer working this morning for the first time and was so elated! Then I started feed mode this evening (stopped the main pump and powerheads), and when I turned it all back on minutes later my skimmer is bubbling, but not foaming. I've played around with the water...
