Recommended Posts

Just brought a new tank to upgrade from 2ft to 3ft tank!.this tank is compelted with George Fisher (GF) piping and sump tank system.

This tank is gonna be a mix reef tank but more towards fish!I'm still new in this hobby so if there is anything wrong with my tank or wAter parameters pls tell me.I intend to let the tank cycle for about 3weeks.ALL THE equipments ARE COMING TMR SO excited gonna post more tmr...ALL COMMENTS AND CRITtICISM ALL WELCOMED!!

Some pics of the tank sorry for the poor quality using ipad take pics

Pic 1: pic of the tank!

Pic2:sump tank without alot of things

Pic3:pervious owner made an extra intake and outlet at the bottom of the tank at the back that connects directly to the chiller, so if you get sump tank pump failure or changing water your main tank temp is still maintained by chiller, also improves water circulation.

Bro, I notice your display tank nozzle will be pretty deep under water. (Pls. correct me if I'm wrong.) You need to take extra precaution to prevent backflow into your sump during power outage.
Which nozzle are u talking about i got 2 one for return from sump and one for chiller!
