Yep going to check tank today.. Yesterday, I did a little re-piping. I have three 1 1/2 drains pipes from the tank, two joined and one was separate before going into the sump chamber 1. Yesterday I made them all independent and added a third pipe entry into chamber 1 so I can increase the return pump and max flow. What a great improvement. Now I am getting more flow and a lot more turbulent/ air induction in chamber 1. I made extension pipes for all three pipes in chamber 1 with some slits at the bottom of each pipe and 1/2 inch holes in the sides. The air exchange is amazing...I am sure it is increasing O2 in my tank...

well the two little fishy phosphate reactor proved to be a little small. So I am making it into my CO2 scrubber for the skimmer since it has that top that allows you to hang it off the rim of the sump. Got my hands on 3 large avast marine reactors so one will become phosphate reactor(GFO)..
