Wont affect water parameters?????

A buddy called me the other day, he was cleaning out a warehouse and he found all these crates with this cool coral skeletons that was wrapped in newspapers from the 70s that came from Australia. Do you think it's safe to add to a tank? They're cool looking...

Well that would be nice but I called BRS today and they said use rubber coupling from Lowes.. For 600.00 I don't want to have to have what I would say is a leak point..... There should be a better way. Why doesn't someone sell actual adapters?

Still on this skimmer thing, want to do an external set up to keep room for live rock and macro in the sump. Looked at the reef octopus but says metric plumbing, anyone have experience with this?

Thanks...

Anyone have a diagram of how to keep the skimmer out of the sump? Want to keep out of the sump because once in sump/ in stand and tanks moved against wall = problems for long term. Inside stand H = 33".. Plus would leave room for nice refuge in my sump tank! : )

Also, how many GPH should I be moving on 70 tank with 20 gallon sump?

Ok, trying to get the last few things together for this build. I want to start my wiring and plumbing but need my sump pump and skimmer. This skimmer thing is a hard choice to make. Any other Ideas on skimmers? I think I would like to keep it out of sump to keep room for live rock/ macro. 70...

Don't want something that saves a buck and creates a headache

No Idea where to go with this, had an all in one system. Now doing a 70 cube build. Have an RS-100 sump anyone have skimmer suggestions????

All right, one last piece of equipment left to buy..... The skimmer. Any suggestions? Don't want spend a fortune, but want something nice.

In the long run the livestock from the nano will end up in the 70, the nanos moving and going to be a QT tank

I like it too, I was going to do the 93 but then I saw this, I like that its shallower and wont require as much light to get to the sand bed. It will bee easier to clean too.

We'll see..................lol

I know this is an after thought but should I worry about weight on my floor?
