Hi All,
For the past 6 months I have been trying to figure out how I can .
1) increase my water volume,..
2) change from vsv method to macro argue method.
3) deal with the suspended particulate in the display, high flow, low turnover. Due to the fish load and excessive feeding.
Fish:
12 Goldies.
3 tangs- fowleri,purple, yellow ( chevron in quarantine)
Majestic fox
Emporer
Masked angel pair
Copperband
4 wrasses
Large saddleback clown pair and carpet.
Pair designer clowns
Juv blue ring angel.
Sps mostly ... To many to mention.
So here is my question in the below picture is my solution.
3 by 48x42 liquid ( food grade) plastic storage pallets .... My question is how ho I plum this?
My plan was to use the bottom right as return for the display ,... A settlement tank setup, with the 2 x 1.5 inch drains into the settlements (bottom right). The pallet on top will be the refurgium , with lid ... Was thinking to use dc 12000 or mag 12 from settlement to refurgium ontop.
Have 2 x 1.5 inch drains from top refurgium into palette on the left ( via filer sock chamber setup I'm building ) for equipment skimmers, carbon , gfo etc .... And return to the display by two 3000gph dc pumps on two 1" lines as the head pressure is not good, would suspect would get 2-3000 gph back to display? I realize I would have to plum the two bottom tanks to ensure water level was constant thinking to join two bottom tanks with 2x1.5 inch ?
This is the plan ,... Would like to know if there is a better idea on the plumbing ,.... And if I have missed anything ,... Or anything I should consider? Appreciate taking to time to read and any help you can offer.
