Hi I have a 180gallon fish only tank that has a canister filter. I was going to upgrade to a 40 gallon sump is there any recommended hang on back overflows and return pumps? Whats the best flow rate or gallon per hour for each of them?

In my 125 gallon mixed reef, I am currently using a Mag 9.5. I am battling some algae issues and do not think i have enough flow (I know excess nutrients are the root cause, but I want enough flow to keep everything suspended in the water column).I am trying to figure out how large of a return...

Hi all, I am going to be setting up a new tank very shortly. The tank is going to be 3ft x 2ft x 2ft, with sump. I have decided on 2 radion xr15 pro (gen 4) lights as I'm wanting to keep a variety of softies, LPS and SPS. At the moment most of my questions are around the sump - I previously...

My 75 gallon return pump (Danner Mag 7) is making noise and I just ordered a Eheim 1262 (900gph) on Amazon. I initially wanted to purchase Eheim 1260(700gph) but the price on the 2 day shipping was $157 and they had the 1262 2 day shipping for $128 Now I am having second thoughts since I am...

I am running a jebao dc-8000 (it is a DC pump) return pump on my 75 and I am running the risk of overflowing the tank if power goes off and it goes to highest setting after it resets. Was thinking of undervolting the pump like running it at 18v instead of 24v (using variable volt adapter) to...

Hello - I am hard plumbing and installing my 55gallon sump in my basement, feeding my 93 gallon cube display tank. I am running a 1" "relief" valve off a T-fitting above my return pump, to better allow control of the flow into my display. My question is: Where should I run the relief valve...

Hey everyone, it's me again. I'm getting closer and closer to getting my new tank set up. I finally purchased a long over due RO/DI unit that I love and another good powerhead.

I have a 68 Gallon Cadlights tank. It came with a 1" drain and a 1/2" return line. The pump that came with it is rated at 500GPH and I would obviously like to swap it our for a more powerful one. It's approximately 3' from the sump to the bottom of the overflow. In looking at the submersible...

I'm setting up a new 80 gallon tank in my living room, so it has to be dead silent, or I will be taking up residence on the couch. I built a beananimal overflow that is dead quiet, and set up a loop in my sump for my Turbo L2 Algae scrubber using a Sicce Syncra 2.0 pump that is also dead quiet...
