My ph is low 8.0 Id like to raise it since i dont feel comfortable with that low of a ph. also i think my xenia would do better in a higher ph also. So id like to start adding kalkwasser, not the drip method, but in my top off water. I top off a gallon or two a day, so how much kalkwasser would...

Maybe someone can help me with my drains , I have a 150 with two overflows . The thing is the drains are in the side panels of the tank (came that way I didn't put them there) and their about 3/4" from the trim that goes around the top of the tank . They are making so much noise that I had to...

To explain again for those that didnt read my previous threads. I installed the new sump today. The first chamber has the water coming in from the tank. and the 3rd has the water going to the return pump which is outside the sump. I have the pump for my skimmer in the first chamber. I thought...

I am sorry to be posting all these dumb questions, but my mind is on overload! I am trying to learn as much as I can about this new and fabulous hobby. To all who don't know, I am starting with a used freshwater system (cleaned and re-vamped) bought from a co-worker. I had a few accumulated...

Hi all. I just set up a 20g tank and I purchased a Coralife superskimmer 65 and wanted to know if anyone had a problem with it...I have been doing FW aquariums for years but this is my first setup of salt. Question: There is a air silencer on the venturi tube and when i take it off i get lots of...

On my ATO setup i would like to install a check valve in the air line tubing since my aqualifter pump is actually below the level of my ATO resevoir. What side should i install the check valve on? the tubing side that runs from my resevoir to the pump? or the tubing side from the pump that drips...

I recently set up my tank. A 90 gallon with a g2 skimmer. Any way to quiet the gurguling from the venturi tube? love trt

I have a euro reef cs8-3 skimmer. Its a pain to take the collection cup off while its full because its so darn tall. 36". I want to put a drain in the collection cup so I can empty it easier. I figured it would be best to drill the bottom of the cup as its not acrylic its gray plastic of some...

Im picking up the tank this weekend, but it doesnt look like i will be able to drill it. I found out its a custom made tank and the bottom is tempered glass. So what other options do I have? The hang on overflow makes me nervouse because of the losing syphon possibility. I live in florida...

Here is a photo of my new skimmer per Whiskeys request. I added 2 photos on since i have no idea where these pieces would go one is just a hollow black tube, the other one has 2 nipples on it. Does it look like it is put together correctly? The directions were horrible.

Hi Everyone, I had a bad night last night. I have two new brains and they needed to be fed. So I waited until the lights had been off for an hour or so then I went in to feed the corals. That worked out great they ate like little pigs. While I was watching the corals eat I noticed my two dogs...

here are some pics they are not great but i havent figured out my camera yet

Ok, I have a hang on overflow on the 29. The overflow is by proclear and has the overflow box with slits and a u tube that carries that water to the per filter on the back. The overflow can be seen here...

I am going to be ordering the Aquapod 24 gallon as my first reef tank. What items are essential for my shopping list? I know I want to do live rock and live sand. What testing kits and other equiptment and supplies do I need? Thank you in advance. Amy

My 55usg always seems to have more than average particles in the water, When i Wc i wrap a pad of filter floss around my stream and it polishes the water nicely but obviously not a long term solution I've got a brand spanking new fluval 205 here rated at 180usgph, I'm thinking of using it just...

what causes the little bubble to form in the top of an overflow, there are no bubbles getting in the in or out hole. how does that happen, and how do you stop it? its a u-tube style overflow.

So, I'm setting up my first tank. My boyfriend is a reef tank guy, and I've decided to start my own. It's a 15gal hex tank. I am planning on putting 2 clarkii clowns, and a yellow spotted watchman goby in my tank. I have Marshall Island rock in the tank, and I (well, maybe I should say my...

Alright today I finally decided I am tired of lugging 5 gallon jugs of water over to my tank to make up for evaporation. It's time to add a top-off system. My first thought was to get a float valve mount it in the sump and hook it up directly to my RO/DI system. But everywhere I go to buy one...

Help!! I built a skimmer like the one on Mantled Monster. It is about 42 inches tall. i have it powered with a Mag 7 and 1/2" kent venturi. I can't get it to produce foam. I had a few times where it produced small amounts, but it never reached the top of the collection tube. It has been...
