Hi All,
My Name is simon I live in Stratford upon Avon in the UK.
I am a Newbie to this Forum, I have a custom made 60g reef cube which is now 5yrs old, so you could say it's a well established cube. I mainly keep softies due to the fact that I have fairly high Nitrates 25ppm but I am due to do a breakdown early next year, i.e. Change the sand and rocks etc.
One question I would like to ask is that I recently changed my old Jebao DC 600 for the new model Jebao DCP 65000 after 5yrs without any issues. I need to ask how to set the flow rate on the control panel.
On my old return pump the setting was 70% on the control panel, on my new one I have it set on 50% but I need to know if it's too high as I have a 3 chamber 10g sump, with no reactors or fuge I just have a Tunze Doc Skimmer 9006. Do I need to Match the flow rate to my skimmer pump ? I have the drain on a trickle from the weir into the sump. Many thanks for any advice , plus I hope this makes sense too.
