Thanks, I'd say 10X turnover. Flow is coming from multiple 1/4" holes so flow is strong and gentle. If it was coming from 1 inlet pipe it would be too much!
You don’t have any addition powerheads in there, right? This is all tee’d off the return?
Thanks
Looks like you wrote on a wrong thread, this is about Cryptic fugesYou don’t need to clean the Body of your Skimmer. Only the Cup, Throat, “Wiped out with a wet Paper Towel.” Also the Pump, and the Vortex, if you have a Vortex.
I transferred everything to a new home and 100 gallon plastic tank, Due to not have flow in the black cryptic box i put it directly in the fish tank, my 3 yellow tangs made it their home so wasnt able to remove it, it still served as a good cryptic zone (not the best) and I finally removed it few months back. I wouldnt spend too much time thinking about it (as i once did), just add rock with sponge in a good area in sump with alot of flow (or add it via pump or manifold), and leave it alone. Sponges are like a natural carbon filter, its pretty impressive how crystal clear my old system is without any care.Very interesting! I wonder how are the sponges in the cryptic zone doing now? I'm planning to make a cryptic zone of my own. Best regards!
Thats awesome, i actually just setup a QT tank with same exact sump, Just Rock rubble and no skimmer. I am setting it up just like a display tank but since I may not have fish I need nutrients so rather not do the skimmer, I may have to add fish bc i feel dosing NO/PO is too much testing and work.This cryptic zone been working well for me that I don’t use skimmer anymore
