Refuse delivery if early? If you put specific instructions for delivery and they can’t handle such a simple thing then they should eat it.

My cda from California to Pennslyvania via freight took like a 5 to 7 business days. Im like 10 minutes from the northern jersey border. It definitely doesn't take a month. It might sit a day or two in their terminal before they schedule a delivery with you.

Christmas decorations are up, so it must be.

Question for you all...

The 150g tank has 2 return holes drilled. Do I run two return pumps or plumb it to one pump. I currently have a Sicce Syncra SDA 6.0 that is 530 - 1450gph. Do I need two of these pumps or just one?


Happy Thanksgiving!!

Happy Thanksgiving... :)
IMO , only want one return pump,but don't think 6.0 is enough, overflow ,single ? prob approx 1500 gph
dual approx 800 each, thinking w head need approx 16-1800 return gph
look into jebao /jecod controllable 3000 gph pump, and dial down to needs...:)

I'm running 800 GPH on my 70 and it sure seems like I could use some more flow. Single return but split for a left/right

I’m running as much flow as I can quietly. Have 2 3450gph pumps running. One for the two 75gallon tanks on 60% oscillating and the other on the main tank is at 75% oscillating.
I know some people do matched return pumps for redundancy. If one fails the other is still kicking.

I have a 150g too. I run 2x Varios 8 pumps to each return line. Each return has a random flow generator. I have them dialed at 60% and use them to give more random flow.

Where did you buy your leveling mat to go under your tank? I never bought one before since I have always had rimmed tanks. I search on BRS and Premium Aquatics and could not location it

I've heard some people use Yoga mats.

for a 150, you need more power than that. I would do one 9.0.
