Probably through the rocks. GHA doesn't like flo

Then more towards the middle.

Is there anything between y'all's magnets and the glass? Like padding or something?

 

[cdemoss01]

Ok pump is in, made a sputter noise and its only spitting flow in second intervals. It'll flow..stop..flow etc. im gonna play with the controller here any tips? Controller says F100.

 

[cdemoss01]

Adjusted pump to F50. Meaning flow 60. Still shooting flow in intervals.

No, it came like a rubber square but I remove it so that the magnet holds stronger and if I need to move it, I separate the magnet from the glass and don't drag it.

Aftermath... It's bad
Also check health of GHA.

The gha and aptasia on that side was whipping and fish had a bad reaction and went into hiding. I turned it down to 40.

We've got Bikini Beans here in AZ. And yes, they walk around in their bikinis.

I'm moving to Arizona

It depends what you want it to achieve. More surface agitation, or more flow through the rocks?

Agreed, the gyre type flow works well more towards the surface.

Looks like its stirring up a lot of detritus. This would be a good time to hook a siphon up and run it through a filter sock to remove it.
Wait... are you wanting to keep the GHA and aptasia?

Is there a "mode" button on the controller? It sounds like it is in a "pulse" mode from what you are describing.

Do you know the TDS? Have you changed the filters at all?

Kinda what I was getting at.
Trying to cook at the same time....

Awesome name for a coffee shop. Lol I'm on my 4th cup...

Where the heart is on the cup is where I'm at. ;) :smiling-face:

It’s not the prettiest but someone said they wanted to see how I could pull this off without buying the maxspect 8K.

1 1/2 female threaded ~> 1 1/4 inch reducer ~> 1 inch reducer ~> 1” barbed fitting = saved $250.00.

Not cemented yet, didn’t want to push connections in to deep until primed.

I keep one 1 inch below the water, the rest are randomly placed.

Your corals won't care what it looks like my friend! You did well by the way, that will do the trick for your pump.

I think I'm going to setup my Hygger controllable pump today. Finally feeling up for it lol.

I love mine!

I spent a year out in Mesa working in the ICU at Mountain Vista Medical Center, I'm a Registered Nurse. I would often go to Seguaro and Canyon lakes on the weekends.

Considering opening a coffee shop... I was thinking of naming it "Flick the bean". Too much? May draw a large female following. I'm asking for a friend obviously. :smiling-face-with-halo::smiling-face-with-sunglasses:

I haven't changed the filters and I can't remember what the TDS reading was but I can check it again when I get home. I do remember it's very low from the tap and even lower thriving the RODI filter.
