[FONT="]Tank (65g) has been cycling and plumbing had no issues until...[/FONT]
Takes approximately 30 sec for majority of larger bubbles to dissipate but close to a minute or more for the balance of the micro-bubbles to be gone.
Questions For Feedback:
1. Is the flow too powerful as to cause stress or whatever for fish and/or corals?
2. Are these bubbles anything to be concerned about? Surely, on/off much cause stress on the system...no?
3. If any of this is an issue, then what's to be done?
Feedback much appreciated. [/FONT]
- [FONT="]Swapped out a Mag 7 (hated the vibration) for a Max-Jet 3000. More powerful and quiet 500+ GPH vs. approx. 425 GPH.
[/FONT] - [FONT="]Drilled 1/4" siphon break hole on bottom surface of 3/4" loc-line return on pipe that is raised slightly above water level (top surface of pipe breaks water line; bottom surface is underwater until power is killed. When power off, as water line reaches siphon break I can hear the air suck). 3/4" line to 'Y' and splits to two 1/2" loc-lines with flat 5 hole nozzles.[/FONT]
