Yes, u need to adjust the spacer on the dry side according to the correct thickness of your tank's glass. If not the magnet won't be strong enough to hold on to the wet side.

Btw, need help.... Anyone know where I can find an Aquabee 2000/1 impeller? The impeller for my Aquabee pump running my CR just failed on me!

Nice tank, and great to see you sharing your build here. May I know what brand of valves you are using?

Thanks!... Well, I learnt a lot over the years from this site among others.... It's nice to share. Besides, we're just a causeway apart!

I'm using a mix of Taiwan made MEFCO and Japan made TGC valves. The Japanese made valves very much more expensive. Thus, I use it on the higher pressured pipe flows.

In goes the LR and salt.....
140kgs of LR in total.... designed into 2 islets.... based on one of my favourite dive site in Thailand 'Hin Daeng-Hin Muang' which means Big Rock, Little Rock. It's a cleaning station in d middle of the ocean marked only by a buoy. During low tide, you'll be able to see wave ripples over the surface of one of the rock.... love it!

Can anyone using MP60wES explain to me why my MP60 detaches and the dry side actually falls off after a couple of hours?? It happened to me twice... Thank goodness, it's still working...
I had to anchor the cables to the return piping just to make sure it doesn't fall off even if it detaches.

If mp40 and mp60 are designed similarly, then the drop off might be due to your glass too thick or you didnt adjust the cover on the dry side to the correct slot which reflects the right thickness of the glass.

Happy Reefing,

Well, the spacer were of the right thickness. I tried using a thinner spacer, but the vibration and noise it produce were just wrong. I guess it takes a while to stabilize. The thick spacers were rated to up to 13mm.... and the medium spacer thickness starts fro 16mm onwards... I wonder what's in between....:)
