I have a reef octos varios 4 return pump. It has been working without a problem for the past month and a half. But yesterday i started hearing some tapping noise, like not too loud, but noticeable tapping noise coming from that area where my return pump is. And I’m pretty certain it’s from the...
Selling a used Hydor Seltz D 3200 gph return pump. I was using this as a manifold pump for a few months then broke down my tank. This pump is from October 2020 so still little use in it.
Asking $180 shipped.
So I got a 25-gallon tank with a complete setup for freshwater fish, but I want to build a reef instead.
I'm looking for the most affordable options for sumps, return pumps, power heads, and what all is absolutely essential to maintain a reef.
I know that sumps aren't essential, but do I still...
I'm starting with local pickup only. I'm located in Fort Worth. Depending on what sells and what doesn't sell, I'll move to shipping in the future (possibly).
Hey all. I've broken down my tank and I'm selling all sorts of items. I've created a spreadsheet of all the major equipment pieces...
This is my first tank that comes with a sump, so I'm completely lost on how to go about this. It's a Waterbox Marine x90.3 (The display is 60 gallons, with a 30 gallon sump).
From what BRS suggests, circulating the water at about 3-4x turnover per hour is sufficient-- meaning you could...
Hello all! I just bought a used system off someone and have been trying to get it all up and running over the last few days. Today I was finally able plug in the return pump and try to dial in the overflow, but holy cow was it super loud. Like loud to the point that I woul get rid of the tank...
I have a 20G JBJ and made a rookie mistake...I mounted the a surge protector to the inside back of the stand and can barely reach it. When I feed I have to reach in and turn the return pump off to slow down the flow. Does anyone have any recommendations for a return pump that can be controlled...
So I am wanting to make a DIY aquarium sump as I am limited by space, now to do this I am going to run a normal canister filter as a pre-filter and send the return to a sump, and then have a second (separate from the canister filter) return pump to the display tank itself. However as you...
Hello everyone. Today, I came across a bit of an issue with the return pump that came with my Waterbox Peninsula Mini 25. It is SUPER noisy and I can’t seem to find the source. It isn’t touching the walls of the AIO chamber that it is in or anything like that. It has happened before, but it...
Hey Everyone,
I made what I am sure is a super common mistake for new reefers, thinking I could save some money by doing everything DIY for my first reef tank. It was a valuable learning experience but after battling near constant algae blooms, fluctuating params and an unsightly set up I bit...
Hey everyone, can you guys give me some advice on what the ideal placement would be for my 2 mo40s? I have 2 s1 return pumps so I’m running 2k an hour through those, plus my 2 mp40s. I have one mp40 on each side pointed at each other about 3 or 4 inches under the water line. I have my mp40s set...
I left the hobby a while back, and have a nearly new return pump for sale. It’s the DC12000-3100 by Your Choice Aquatics (very similar to Jebao). It’s a DC controllable pump, pushes up to 3100 gph, and produces up to 18 feet of head pressure. It comes with barbed hose adapters, controller...

Would prefer if it was cleaned that would be awesome
Thank you for looking! :) Happy reefing
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...
Don’t worry about my current setup, it needs a heavy update, everything is working fine but the power heads and return pump is leaking electricity so i bought an Ecotech Vectra S1 for my 75 gallon mixed reef, which should be sufficient running at 70-80 .
Eventually i will update sump and DT...
