My Red Sea Max 250 - inherited from my job who no longer wanted it

Here is my tank after being set up a few weeks back.

Are you using the sump in the back? Why is the water level so low?

Looks nice!

All the original stock equipment is in use. That is low? As far as I can tell that is the max fill mark that's labeled on the side of the tank.

Hey,
I’m starting the same tank with those Same led lights. There hood lights! Tanks looking awesome. Hoping u could answer a question. Does your pump 2 suck water into the sump. If I put my hand against the pump 2 nozzle inside the tank that pump is sucking in. Unlike the return pump, pump 1 which is blowing out into the tank...

No, both are blowing out. One harder than the other.

The RS max manual says to operate the over flow weir 2 cm down. Yours looks all the way down. You’ll have to add more water once you do

In this picture it’s all the way down.

With the lid open looking directly from the front of the tank, there is a slider on the backwall that should be moved up some. It will raise the water level in the tank and lower the water in the sump. You will need to add more saltwater to bring up the sump level back to where you have it in the pictures.

Yup, water level is all the way up to the top now.
