About 60 miles away, a free public aquarium site, at a site called Cabrillo beach. They have a surge device, it's a large acrylic cylinder standing upright , below the water level. It creates a vacuum to draw water into it and then breaks vacuum and water creates surge. Different idea on surge waves.I think In the correct application a surge bucket is still a good concept. The main issue is microbubbles and salt creep but for simplicity it can’t be beat in larger tanks. In smaller tanks they usually ended up being more of a pain than they were worth and powerheads are so much easier especially the variable ones we have now.
I would love to set up an indoor tidal pool with a huge surge device at one end that cascaded water over the rockwork into the pool
Light it up, baby. HeeeeState of the art aquarium stand ( Not mine thank goodness) You get to rock the tank all you want !! Comes with Power supply in the ideal place to get wet !!
My new sump. West Virginia engineering.
If a heater fails I don't want it resting on the stock tank. Second layer of protection since they are on a controller.Dude that PVC heater holder is genius!! I need to make one to keep my heaters from dangling everywhere!
Ha! Awesome!My new sump. West Virginia engineering.
I don’t know if I should be offended or honored ( I live in the mountains of NC). Lol...What's the most HILLBILLY thing you've rigged up on your tank?
