Yes, the return pump is connected to the chiller inlet, and the chiller outlet leads right to the tank. The return pump is not noisy la, no sound at all, if you consider that the pump will be underwater, so as long as it doesnt sound like a ground breaker, i think it should not be heard... duno wat is ther power wattage of the pump, cos i nvr required to check it. hostel paying for the whole bill mah, so i dun care... :blink::blink:

Yes, i did consider a float switch, to cut off the pump when the water level runs too low for the return pump to work effectively without cavitating.. i am not so worried as to the overflow box breaking syphon, cos it should not be, unless there is an earthquake causing the U-shaped pipe to shift and break the syphon... nothing to worry there if the box is of a very soundly designed idea. anyway my box was DIYed by another fellow reefer, forgot who it is already...

dunno bout any overflow box threads, but this is an Overflow Pipes thread. quite a lot of reefers swear by it...

Thanks for your info and help, bro Soon. ;)

a foto of one of the frags of hammer which i moved upwards to a much higher point. half hour after my white lights come on, the tips are of this colour. i tried my best to capture as similar a coloration on my camera phone... but still not good. still looks dull...

Hrmz, colours of corals will always be more brillant when it is not fully expanded. I think thats pretty normal. The smaller they are, the brighter they are. In my personnal opinion, theres absolutely nothing wrong with your hammer, looks pretty healthy~ :) Post a FTS yah? Your sun corals are V nice!~
