bro to reduce the noise in the overflow box you need to build a durso standpipe

click the link to build 1 http://www.rl180reef.com/frames.htm

Great!!! Thanks Tanga........really like this suggestion. Might have to construct a DIY one though.....

Do you know if the top of the standpipe is closed or open?

6ft x 2ft x 3ft

Suggestions so far.

1. Remove coral chips and ceramic rings and replace with live rocks. removed...looking for live rocks now

2. get rid of most of the filter cloth

3. First Buy!!! Skimz FR with Sorb4 and eheim pump

4. Re-doing the sump.....I~aquatic doing up the plans.

5. Lighting MH+T5 or T5 only? how many?

6. Chiller?

7. Wave maker

8. check valve on the return line to prevent sump overflow (great idea)

9. Refugium? Anything to replace it? a FR of some sort maybe?

The top of the stand pipe is close but you need to drill 2 holes at the sides of the top cover for adjusting the air.

hows ur progress bro?

Done the sump......

overflow is a bit better, just got to do some DIY for the waterfall sound..

waiting for the FRand PO4 removal.....

Still thinking about the lights, chiller, maybe a protein skimmer and even redo the whole sump.....

At the moment, would like to know what else to add to the sump, in terms of filter media........looks a bit barren.....or is it meant to be that way?

Should i get Carbon? if so wat sort....and how to place it?

Thanks for the help and concern reddevils.....
