I've been battling Dino's for ages. I have a Waterbox 220 which is really a 167 display tank.
Current tank parameters are:
Nitrate 2.4
phos .87
Tank flow from the main return is 790gph.
I am considering a 40 Watt UV, my return pump is already feeding the manifold that is running my Carbon reactor (110gph) and my soon to be installed Algae Reactor. So I really can't run another line off of that return.
So, the plan is to use a 2nd return pump which will reside in the skimmer section of the main chamber, the question is where to put the return flow from the sterilizer. I don't really want to put pipes into the display tank for asthetic reasons,, can I just run the outflow to the return section of the sump? How much more efficient would it be to run the return directly into the tank?
Thanks.
