Going down n check it out, can drop by 328 at same time. I see ah beng's main tank, the suspended particles get moved to the overflow box but I think the desig of the tank plays a big part. Mine's overflow is at corner so some how a portion of suspended particles get cycled bck wards.wan to mod to minimize this effect, hopefully. Reducing detrius frm collecting on lr.

Reducing detrius frm collecting on lr. If your tank is BB, an additional underflow will help to clear detritus. Some folks use multiple wave makers to keep detritus from resting onto LR & tank bottom. I use my magnet clean every couple of days to similar effect. Cheapo way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
