I have a 75 and have been torn between these 2 pumps...i have been hearing different things about them. I was to do LPS and SPS corals and now i just run alot of power heads which i hate. With the quiet one i can only have about 4 exits for the closed loop which kinda annoys me beacuase i want...

Well, who am I kidding? It was bound to happen so why resist? Over the last few months the wife and I have talked about what would be my summer project this year since she knows that I HAVE to have something to occupy my time otherwise insanity sets in. I told her that my plan was to teach a...

I have four 1" true union ball valves (sch 80) new in box and one 75 watt submersible heater barely used no box. Make offer. Thanks!

I am getting things ready for my big day next week. Redoing my sump. My question is this. Currently my Ball Valve (I think this is what it is called) is located after my bulkhead and before the return pump. I would like to change this and put it after the return pump (to give me more room)...

I've considered buying a backup return pump. I guess my fear is if something ever went wrong with the pump, not sure how fast I could get my hands on an exact replacement. I have a Seqence reeflo which is generally readily available, but a somewhat expensive piece of equipment to have sitting...

I am planning a CLS for my new 135-gallon. The CLS will run off a Dart and here's my current plan: So, starting with the Dart, I'm going to have a T with threaded union ball valves on both outlets of the T. One outlet of the T going to the spraybar through a 3/4" bulkhed near the bottom back...

I have a 25 watt Gama UV for sale. Everything is in fine working condition and the bulb only has about 40 hours on it. Asking $100.00 obo plus shipping. PayPal prefered but will accept money orders. No Personal checks please.

So I took the proverbial plunge and ordered a 135-gallon tank yesterday. The new baby is 72"x18"x24 with a center trap overflow and a black back. SOOOOOOOOOOOO....what do you think I should do with it? Give me all your ideas on equipment, livestock, etc. Thanks in advance.

Another question for my tank upgrade. I've been dealing with plumbing over the last few days, and after struggling with bulkheads I think I've finally got them all seated and leak free (that was quite a chore). I've 2 "megaflow" overflows with 4 holes in the bottom of the glass, just a standard...

Okay, here I go with yet another plan for the 150. Some of you may remeber the first set up in my last house on the custom oak stand. The when we moved into this house the first thing I did was rip out the wall between the living room and garage to do the built in routine with a wet room behind...

I wanted to get some advice/ help on making my return plumbing. All 1" pipe. 1) PVC Cement , clear. Regular. Gold can. Is this Ok??? 2) A compression adaptor to connect bulkhead to PVC pipe (compression for later removal). I can post a picture if anyone doesnt understand this one. Is...

how did you plumb your sump return ? i'm looking for ideas, opinions and suggestions. right now i'm toying with a few ideas, but, who knows, there may be other opinions that i didn't think off. the sump return pump will be plumbed to a 3/4" bulkhead that is installed in the top right back...

This is the ultimate prop tank for someone looking to sell corals or raise frags. I am no longer in the business and it's just taking up a lot of space in my house. All items are in extremely good condition and have less than three months use on them. All items are approximately a year old, but...

so, i think my rookie-ness is stating to show itself. there i was working hard, hoping to have everything plumbed and working properly this weekend. the idea was to use a velocity T1 for my skimmer pump the skimmer is an aqua-c EV180 well, that was a mistake, in less than a minute, the whole...

Ok, I am just about ready to get this big tank plumbed...but i need to know this... going up from the return pump to the tank... do you place the ball valve before the union or the union before the ball valve and why for which ever one is the correct way.... Thanks!

I am using my Dart on a CLS with my oceans motions 8 way. I will be using a 1 1/2" bulkhead for my inlet to the dart. The inlet go from 1 1/2" to a 2" ball valve union then into the dart. Will this be efficient? The reason I decide on the 1 1/2" bulkhead is so the inlets inside the tank aren't...

I am still getting my stuff together but I am closer than ever to setting this thing up...it is an AGA 180 RR with the dual overflows...3/4 inch returns and 1 inch drains...what I am trying to decide on right now is what return pump to use... I own 3 pumps already... a mag 12, a quiet one 5000...

Well, I'm moving, and getting out of the hobby too. I just didn't have the time and money to create the tank that I had wanted, and I am selling the major components before I move. (By the end of this month.) Up for sale is my 30g custom plywood starphire tank, stand, and pendant. All are...
