  1. It depends on how you see it From my point of view, if there is too much water flow in the sump, it only acts as an increase in the total volume of water. Different people have different views so i think that research is VERY important to ensure you are using the sump at 100% effieciency. As for fuges, I am currently trying out a new design where there is high flowrate on 1 half and low flowrate on the other and each half will have Grade 0 and Grade 1 sand respectively. Any details of the head loss from output of chiller to return to main? i do not want to have too many pumps working
  2. Just how much head loss will you lose by using the output to return to main? Actually I do not encourage people using high flowrate pumps for the return as it totally defeats the purpose of a sump (worse still for those with refugiums). Yes, there is high flow-thru but i would sacrifice that for longer dwell time in the sump.
  3. Just want to know how you connect the chiller
  4. care to post a pic of the ASAHI? saw at Iwarna that their Dual Beckett using a valve connected to a plastic tube and tube to the housing
  5. Hi guys, care to share what you use to control the air intake in the injector housing? Some suggestion from friends: Plastic cheepo valve for air pumps Sleek nice PVC valve Ball Valve So what do you guys use?
  6. FYI, chlorofoam is a controlled chemical in Singapore so you cn't just find it anywhere
  7. Mods pls help me edit my title as there is a typo. Should be "Feeding with overflow"
  8. Hi guys, My friend asked me how do you guys feed your fishes when the overflow consistently skimes water off? Won't the food be sucked off by the overflow? As I do not have an overflow currently, I cannot give him an accurate answer. Pls share your views
  9. i do not really understand the meaning of the PVC angles will lessen the water flow. I thought that water out from pump = water out from pipe?
