After having freshwater tanks most of my 58 years, I'm finally starting my first saltwater tank! My son, a realtor, was given a used Biocube 29 from a client who needed it out of their house and he passed it on to me. It had been in great working condition, according to them.
After watching LOTS of videos and reading, I have the tank cleaned out and almost ready to go. However, as I filled it up with freshwater for one last rinse, I saw water flowing from chamber 1 into chamber 2 towards the bottom of the back wall. I know water is supposed to flow over and through the filter material. The pump is working great, and chamber 3 stayed just above the max line. Is this normal flow between 1 and 2 normal, or do I have a leak to fix?
