Here is my new toy! Really like this gadget which helps turns my boring out flow into a random flow without additional wavemaker. Simple and easy to use [url="http://youtu.be/GdaCIRsRiP4"

Having the same problem.

I don't know if I splash salt water on it but I am starting to see some rust forming.

Must quickly get rid of it else when it will be difficult when more rust starts to develop....

Thanks bro! :)

Not my credit, I threw everything to Vincent and he did this wonderful job. I kinda like the single pump idea, can save $ but I am sure there are some disadvantages but so far so good.

Hope to see your new tank soon!!

Actually the idea came out because I was 'Niao' wanted to save cost then also my cabinet space very limited. I cant imagine adding few more pumps for chiller and FR. Totally cannot fit in anymore.

Always a challenge when I need to change my filter sock

Main pump hooked for 3 uses is a great idea but for insurance policy I'll hook my chiller with another pump, just in case the main basket breaks, I lose all my eggs.

Just my 2 cents (:

Fully agree with you. Also I found another disadvantage, my pump is 3000L/H but hooking up like that I do not know what is the flowrate I am pumping to the chiller for it to be efficient.

is Eheim compact 600 good enough? I have one spare

Tested my NO3 with Salifert test kit and results is super low! I think my Biopellet is working else with the amount of food I feed, I don't think it is that low.

To be fair I have Chaeto in refugium too

Here you go, FTS as of few days ago. Quality isn't good cuz captured with iPhone cam.

my scape is tilted from right down to left because I walk into my room from left. Wanted to create a slope so when I walk in can see everything. :)
