Water box 50.3 AIO Peninsula

[Morgan Rodgers]

Hi all! I just transferred all of my fish into my water box 50.3, and I am waiting a little bit to transfer my coral. I do have one question, I have a sycra 2.0 pump and it’s blowing everything around, how would I turn it down?

Reposition how its coming into tank, or youd have to have some kind of a valve

So there is no way for me to adjust the flow other than a valve or a different pump? I don’t have the manual for this pump since I bought it used so I don’t know much abt it sorry

No i dont believe so. I use the same pump for water changes

Google the instruction manual?

It appears to be adjustable...

Naw, that's what this place is for - everybody's gotta ask questions sometimes :)

Rq question, should I put all the coral in the tank now? Or wait a few more hours for it to get less cloudy?

Wait - is the tank even cycled??

It’s all the media from my old tank, as well as all the old water

How much rock do you have?
How did it get so cloudy? You didn't reuse the old sand, right??

Did not reuse old sand and it’s roughly 25 lbs of rock, all been in my tank for 3 years. As well as a polyplab filter media rock thing that has been in my tank for 6 months

However, did add 60 lbs of sand and did not exactly dump my water in the most careful of ways.

Ok. I would be more worried about the fish than the coral, but would wait to add anything else until you can at least see through the water...

should I pull out the fish and put them into a bucket I have with a bubbler until it clears up?

 

[Brandont21]

Would probably stress them out more. The ocean isnt exactly crystal clear at times

How long have the fish been in? And has the tank cleared up at all compared to the photo you originally posted?

 

[EeyoreIsMySpiritAnimal]

If you have a power filter or micron filter, I'd use that in the tank temporarily to clear it up.
