The Waterbox 20

[Everything Aquatics]

Are you using a different pump? Mine doesn’t seem to be adjustable

I am using a sicce pump not the stock pump, I would recommend an upgrade the stock pump is also very loud

Did you go with the 1.0 or 1.5? Probably going to purchase today.

 

[Everything Aquatics]

Thanks

Just hooked up the .5 sicce pump and with a full media basket it’s no longer running dry. Thanks for the tip! Saved me a headache for such a simple fix

Currently showing ammonia at 2ppm and nitrates at .5 ppm. We are moving forward nicely!

Tank is fully cycled and picking up some frags later. I will post pics tonight.

Starting to believe that the Jebao SLW-10 might be a bit too powerful. All the way down it seems to blow the corals pretty hard

You try messing with the placement? What's the lowest setting?

It’s hard to tell. I can turn it down but once I turned it off everything opened up nicely. It’s a little over 1k gph all the way up.

 

[Matty-Ice]

I’m not sure what the lowest setting is on the Jebao SLW-10 but I have it angled a bit up and everything is open just still seems kinda high flow for a softy and lps tank. I guess time will tell.

Ok after a few days of letting it run everything is happy. Had a Midas blenny for about 48 hours and he made the dive for the carpet during the night. Long story short the cats found him before me.
Next step, a lid.

I will post full pics this evening of the tank.

Ah! I went with the D-D Jumpguard Pro after one of my clowns jumped out.

Yeah the jump guard pro is pretty much what I have. I used a window screen kit and clear mesh from Lowe’s. Same as Jim guard and about $15 cheaper!

I’ve been looking at these and Octolids both. Might be my next purchase. Sorry for the late reply I’ve been gone and let the wife watch the tank for a few weeks. Just got back today

Merry Christmas everyone! Sorry for taking so long, but here is where my tank is now!
