Nice, Sal!3/25...We went to a frag meet and we picked up 3 zoas's /// African Blue Steel, Mohawks and Gorilla Nipples. Have then on the 300 now...once they settle in, I will post a few pics...

I may have one or two NOS, I'll check if interested...It Might Be Old, but the SCWD is Still Cool | Reef Builders | The Reef and Saltwater Aquarium Blog
If you’ve never heard of the Switching Current Water Director, aka the SCWD (pronounced ‘squid’), congratulations because you’ve been a reef hobbyist in in a very different era or reef keeping.reefbuilders.com
They have a 1 in model and it seems that one has better longevity than the smaller sealed version. I'm very seriously considering buying one to try out.
In typical Frank fashion, I have no idea what I'm supposed to be seeing there dude!I may have one or two NOS, I'll check if interested...
look through the reactor...sorry best pic i could find...
SCWD, New in box , large, was new in 2019 anyways...In typical Frank fashion, I have no idea what I'm supposed to be seeing there dude!
I loved the vertical pads I used in my custom Cichlid sump but the debris stays in the water column...Well I out grew out of the 5 foot sump I made for the 300. Started making a 6 foot sump for the 300 yesterday. Changing the design again. new and improved with lots of reactors, and ozone with carbon reactor. Two skimmers, one main for normal operation and one for all the water from ozone reactor and bio pellet reactor. Doing away with the filter cups, going to layered vertical foam pads of different density, course, medium and fine which will be 22x12x1 in size and just lift out to clean. So as the pads get dirty water height will increase and move up the pad. I am able to buy them in 2x4 pads and cut them from a friend who works at chemical clean up facility. Then after the skimmer chamber water will pass over a super fine felt pad with will be horizontal and easy to lift out and clean. Goal is to increase water flow, ease of cleaning and make room for all the reactors so that they are in the sump incase of a leak. Ozone reactor set up will be in it's own 18x14 dry box outside the sump and the new 3 foot UV will be horizontal in its own dry box. Sump will alos have 100 pounds of Florida live rock in a chamber. Also doing away with all the chambers from previous design. This design is intake chamber, pads chamber, live rock chamber, huge 3 foot long chamber (for all the rectors) and then the return pump chamber.
yes...sort of what I am thinking but I am going to leave some space between the pads and have a felt one too.I loved the vertical pads I used in my custom Cichlid sump but the debris stays in the water column...
I used filterfloss pads between Matalla mat so as one filter floss pad clogged, the water would go up and over and down the metalla mat to the next layer of filter floss.
why not go filterfloss roller?
sure looks nice! I got the idea from Cody - a freshwater youtuber & AquariumCo-Op starter. He did it for his 900 gallon tank. made a video about it.
