Hello,
Let’s talk about the Redsea reefer tanks overflow box.
Specifically, for those that use a feed mode on your return pumps.
Do you find that after ending feed mode, the overflow box fills entirely and the water starts going down the emergency drain pipe? And continues to do this for several hours, never returning to your previous water level?
Does anyone have any tips to stop this happening? Other than the obvious “don’t use feed mode” - but why waste the food by filtering it straight into my roller mat?
I’ll have my water level in the overflow box nice and stable 1cm below the emergency drain pipe all day, until feed mode is used.
Some preemptive information:
The tank is 1 month old so it’s clean.
I have checked for blockages.
I had the same issue on a previous reefer tank which I’d modified with a gate valve.
Looking forward to hearing tips from the community.
Kind regards,
The Big Man.
