On that note you think a sump with the following dimensions will fit into the stand of the 135.4?


Dimensions: 30.5 x 19.5 x 16 (L x W x H)

I’d have to make some measurements to be sure , but I think your going to be very close on the width part of it. I’ll double check when I get home.

Is there a reason to not use the one that comes with the Waterbox?? Really nice sump I think . [emoji6]

I run my ramp my lights up from 9 am till noon. Then fully light from noon to 5pm and ramp down to 9 pm.

My suggestion... you need more beneficial bacteria to process it. This can be done with more live rock or Life Bio Fil. More area for bacteria the better

Also feeding has a lot to do with it. If you consistently over feed with not having enough area for bacteria or you have a lot of fish then this plays a part also.

That scape looks incredible. I’m using Stax rock in my IM Lagoon 50 and I hope my scape comes out looking anything close to this good. Well done sir.

Thanks for the huge compliment! It’s all up to you and your imagination! Time and patience are key! [emoji6]

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
