I'm trying to decide whether or not I should use an external or internal Durso standpipe in my aquarium. The LFS recommends drilling the bottom of my tank (acrylic not tempered, so I'm safe) so that I get more flow than drilling the back of the tank, but once you add a standpipe, doesn't that...

I'm thinking of replacing my built-in wet/dry filter with a sump/fuge setup beneath my tank. Looking at standpipe designs, the first thing that came to mind is that with the higher water level in the overflow and the water being removed at a higher level than bottom, doesn't this lead to gunk...

Anyone modified the bottom of the bubble tube for an AquaC Remora to not have a gap between it and the walls of the center chamber? I'm thinking that this would force more bubbles up the tube rather than getting around the sides of the bottom of the tube. ---------------- | | |...

I have a 40 gal FOWLR tank (only 16lb Fiji live rock so far) and a built-in wet/dry filter. I also have an AquaC Remora protein skimmer. Should I take out the filter pad underneath the drip tray that leads into my wet/dry filter and rely totally on the protein skimmer for mechanical...

I've read in many places that the current recommendation is 10x turnover in a tank and I've perhaps mistakenly assumed that this meant 10x tank volume through my filter/sump. I currently have a 40g FO tank with integrated wet/dry filter and have plans to upgrade sometime in the next year to a...

I installed a new AquaC Remora a week ago today when I did a water change. All week it has been generating nothing but white wet foam. I found some information about how the specific gravity can affect the foam generation, so I checked it yesterday and sure enough, it was low (1.018). I added...

New here. Is the Saltwater Fish Compatibility Guide going to be brought back online? I think it would be a very helpful tool. If not, I vote for it to be un-stickied.
