I've had good success and liked my coralife 65 i have on my 55g tank, so I'm thinking of using the 220 on my 125 + 55g sump (in sump). anyone here have one that can share a review? How is maintainance and tuning? how much height does it need under the cabinate? Thanks! :thumbup:

Hi everyone, I'm on my 2nd go round after my tank of 2.5 years had a crazy phosphate problem (due to my less-than-diligent maintenance of the DSB). I wanted your advice on filtration for the new system. It's going to be another FOWLR w/ a 2-3" DSB (I guess that would be a SBD then?). Here's...

back when I have a marine tank the under gravel filter was " all you needed" I am getting ready to start a 75 gal tank, old style, not drilled , it will have live rock and a few live stock, Do I need a sump? if so can I buy one ready to use, and what size should I buy Thanks

http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2002-07/totm/index.php I dunno. The tank was over a year old in that issue, but of course they never say if things are still running or if they were taken down/IF they were taken down WHY it was(moving, got bored with something so small, roommate dumping stuff in...

Hello there. I have a 55 Gallon glass tank overflowing to a wet dry sump. In my sump I have a coralife super skimmer that outlets into my home made refugium. I have ran an overflow back from the refugium to the sump in case the return pump cannot keep up with the skimmer pump but really they...

over the past few years I've been befuddled by this persistent greenery. every time I have been to my LFS the past 3 years they've said my water quality is perfect. zero phosphates, zero nitrates good calcium and alkalinity (I do the a/b calc alk system). its like im chasing a ghost here...

it actually has little spurts of bubbles..not as small as they should be though..like the size of a blowing a straw in a glass of water i have a Coralife skimmer that i recently moved to my sump and it worked fine then i moved some things around and it does not make any bubbles...So i took it...

I got the Coralife Super Skimmer 125 for my 55g tank and 20g sump. I have had water in the tank for 1 week, and I am already frustrated with it. In my book, the price I paid was not cheap. It was certainly less than some of the better ones, but this thing seems useless. It is nearly...

I am almost done with my stand. I am finishing up the paint on the inside, then I need to make the doors. My goal was to make a stand that was 1)deep enough to house my 20g sump; 2)stronger than the previous MDF stand; 3)secured the tank on the sides, to prevent dancing off the stand if there...

I am starting a new 46 gallon, my sand arrived today. Should I fill the tank with water now? If I do will I need some type of power head also I don't have the light yet. Is it alright to startup the tank?
