Get another pump, a DC pump is my recommendation. Currently, well as of today I just switched everything from running a return along with 3 MJs (added heat like a ****) to a single DC12000 and am happy with it. The DC pump is feeding the chiller inline to the tank and then the manifold which is powering my bio-pellets and carbon reactor. I think if I add more then flow going back to the tank wouldn't be where I want it. Some of these reactors take a decent amount of flow to get things moving.
Nice build so far, I can't wait to get my acans back. Had tons of them die off on me from a chloramine crash.
Any updates? Can't wait to see the tank wit fish and coral.
Any new corals Darrell??:wink:
Listen to those drum beats. Everyone wants to see the tank and aquaascape and fish and coral. There is a groundswell of excitement building. Don't think any one or anything can hold the crowds away. We have to see it and we have to see it now Pics!! You gotta share us some pictures
The suspense!
Looks amazing! I have always been a fan of your builds… Can't wait to see what you have in store for this one. What did you do with your old scape?
Sorry guys for not updating the thread so much. The tank has been progressing nicely. Much of my corals have been transferred over. Been doing my fair share of killing acros. I'll admit I attempted to push the transfer of corals over too quickly and for acros it was a rough transition. Even loss a couple of chalices and acans along the way.
I bought a frag tank off a local reefer a couple months ago, 24x24x12. I want to plumb it with the same display sump. So I've worked with my dad on making a stand for it, which is done now. The plumbing is 40% done. With any luck I can complete it this weekend and get it wet.
I still need to hook up the doser, ato, chiller. I want to mount a fan on the wall and aim it over the sump for main cooling. The chiller is to backup the fan in case the fan reaches it full capability and the tank needs further cooling.
If I can get a full Saturday to myself, I think I'll be able to plumb the frag tank, hand the lights, setup the doser and ato. Hard to get a full day to myself tho, I enjoy playing with my daughter so much its easy to walk away from these little projects within the hobby to spend time with her.
But that doesn't mean I don't have time to shop around for corals. Mylittlejade knows of my newest purchase that has me completely in awe. Hence his recent "any new corals Darrell?"
So this is my most recent purchase.
Yeah that scape...I love it...let me know if you ever decide to get rid of itThank you! My old scape in my 39 gallon? It's still up and running at work. So that scape is still in tact.
I did make a really cool rock structure for the right side for this tank, but it was too large.
Is that a diaseris? If so I want a piece when it fragable!
Haven't killed those acros you got from me right? Lol
Can't wait to see some more pics of your tank(s).
update!
