Well I drilled my return line too low. We did the math and my sump could handle it but to make sure it could I had to get creative. Its a 90 degree street into a split Y. This raised the water level up just enough so that the first ball of the flex is just slightly above the bottom of the...
apparently this is a problem that happens with a lot of these Vectra return DC pumps. Just another normal shut off for a quick water change. Why wouldn’t it be like the past 4 years having this return pump?
Go to fire it back up and RED light on the dial. Open the möbius app and I see a...
My last tank was a waterbox, and came with the appropriate baseline piping for the overflow + return lines.
My next tank is a used tank minus the plumbing in these areas (specs are attached). Given I lack any experience in building my own overflow + returns, would anyone here be able to help...
I have 2 Sicce ADV 5.5 pumps for sale. Both were used about a month before I switched to DC pumps for control. Both should have all their equipment parts in tact. They have been sitting in my garage for awhile now and I want them gone.
$115 shipped each. $200 shipped for the pair.
Hey all,
I’m from Tennessee, hence the “inland”.
I’ve recently rejoined the reefing hobby. I started with a 29G JBJ Nanocube metal halide in 2017. Now I’ve returned with a 32G LED Biocube. The difference in lighting is phenomenal. Anyways this tank was already running for 2 years when I got...
I have just completed the daunting task of drilling 2 holes in my 30G. Consists of two 3/4 inch bulkheads that lead to two 5/8 inch hoses. Connected everything to the sump and turned everything on. After adjusting everything to make sure the water level is just right I am hearing intermittent...
So I have an aqueon 29 tank with a fluval 307 canister filter along with 2 hygger mini DC wave makers at 1600gph each. My rockwork is pretty much in the center of the tank. One wave maker is on the right side wall in the lower back corner which is pushing water behind the rockwork to the...
Probably a common question. Running a 75 gallon display with a 29 gallon sump under it. Deciding between 1 or 2 returns, but I think I'd like just 1 return pump to save space in the sump. The overflow is the Eshopps Medium rated at 800 gph. I figure this is the biggest determinant of what size...
Hi all,
When will I know its time to give up on trying to get my clowns (Oscellaris, captive bred) to pair? About 6 weeks ago I got a pair of what seem like grown clownfish from an LFS. They came from a tank of 20+ identical clowns and I don't think they are juveniles, seem pretty well grown...
I picked these up earlier this year and did not use them.
New and unused!
They where sealed until I opened them for the pictures.
The A400 has been sold out for a while now so here is your chance to get it!
Prices are cash picked up in Burlington NJ, anything else is at the buyers expense...
I have a practically new Sicce SDC 9.0 pump that I purchased for my larger UV sterilizer, but ended up pulling the large UV off the system and going back to a more balanced size, so don't need the extra flow of the Sicce. Great pump and can't beat the 5 year warranty. Comes with original box and...
So this is my first aquarium utilizing a sump. Past 8 years I’ve only had HOB aquariums.
My tank is a Planet Aquarium Mega Matrix 310 gallon with center overflow with (2) 1-1/2” drains and (2) 3/4” returns. My sump is an IceCap 48XL. I’m running a pair of Maxspect MJ-DC12K return pumps which...
Trying to clear out some equipment I don’t have use for. No REASONABLE offer will be refused. Will consider trades for a G5/G6 XR15 Blue with a mount. Pm me if interested. Willing to ship.

So I have my Planet Aquariums Mega Matrix 310 with internal center overflow. It did not come with any of the overflow plumbing which has (2) 1-1/2” drains and (2) 3/4” returns. The tank is 25” tall.
Are they supposed to come with the internal overflow plumbing or was that an add-on for an extra...
So, despite all of my love for my current canister filter system, I've decided to bite the bullet and learn how to use a sump as I upgrade from a 46g display to an 80g display. I couldn't source a new Seapora 80g low-boy tank anywhere, and Seapora told me they aren't currently manufacturing them...
I’m working on finishing the plumbing on my tank and was hoping for some advice on the return line outlets. I dual have 1 inch return lines each on a separate pump. I want to have minimal plumbing in the tank and was planning on just using the bulkheads without any additional nozzles/loc...
Hey all. I finally bought a new house, which means that I'll soon be able to set up my new 180 gallon tank. I've got everything laid out except for my return line. I'm having a really hard time finding any information on if I should drill my return into the back of the tank or use a HOB return...
Hey guys,
I've got a 60 gallon cube and sump that I'll be setting up here shortly.
I'd love to see what everyone's done for their cube's.
Please post a pic of your set-up.
Thanks in advance!
Hello,
I'm running the Neptune cor 20 by itself, and it's flashing red and not turning on. I have no idea why. it looks like it's the second dot that is flashing, so I tried another outlet on a different power strip, and nothing is changing. I have no idea what the deal is, and everything else...
I was planning to plumb drains and returns with spa flex, but then I saw this at https://flexpvc.com/Guides/FlexHose.shtml under "Description":
"Same Size as Sch 40 PVC pipe, Available in White, black or gray. White is NSF 51 rated (but not for potable water) Our main product."
