We have a 65g mixed reef tank and currently running a Tidal 75 with polishing pad, Bio Pad, Seachem Matrix, Phosgaurd, and Chemipure blue. We are also running a Reef Octo Classic 100 HOB protein skimmer.
Am I out of my mind for wanting to take the Tidal 75 off and get a hob fuge? Just run the Fuge and skimmer? Would my parameters be crazy?
My phosphates I am keeping around 0.12-0.15 but was hoping to get them down closer to .08. Nitrates remain around 20. Just trying to set up the best set up without a sump and limited space on the back of the tank. If I could run a fuge with the filter and skimmer I would but I have about 8 inches from my protein skimmer to the side of the tank.
This is the point I really wish I would of talked my wife into a corner flow 120 when we originally bought the 65 for freshwater.
