    Opinions wanted: help me select an overflow box!

    If you cannot drill Eshopps has some nice overflow boxes in many sizes for a decent price. I got the Nano for my 29 gal tank and it's pretty quiet too.

    CUC 29g

    ReefCleaners.org | Clean Up Crews and Macro Algae - Home Great selection and price. They will also give you their recommendation on what to get for you tank size. You can then downsize it (I did) on how much diatoms and algae you have or if you feel it's just too much. willy0508

    Instant Ocean Salt Mix

    Not to Hijack the thread, I was thinking about the same thing. I've got a 30 FOWLR and have been using Instant Ocean Salt. Want to start on corals soon so I wondered if I should now switch to Instant Ocean Reef Crystals or is the regular salt OK? Can I just start doing PWC's with the Reef...

    Refuge overflow size?

    Thanks keep me posted. I'm going to try this out with the 200. I'll need to get a good return pump. Any recommendations? I'm getting a HOB skimmer since I have a small refuge. Going to order one from Eshopps, PSK75 or 100, that has the pump on the outside. I'll post back once I test, test...

    Refuge overflow size?

    I'm thinking it was one of the HOB's from Aquatraders. It had a skimmer built in and it said 250 on it. My buddy got it from Ebay. I took it off the other day since the intake leaked a little. When I went to take it apart to put some tape around the threads the intake tube broke right at the...

    Refuge overflow size?

    Thanks Gti but I have a hob but didn't like the big pump in the Tank. Didn't like that the light reflected in the tank at night and the area for the chaeto didn't seen to get enough flow. It was below the return. I was also a little worried about the weight sitting on the back of the tank. I...

    Refuge overflow size?

    So I have a 29gal that's been up for about 4 months. Bought a 10 gal for a refuge (only size to fit under my stand.) So here's my question, looking at overflows, i saw an eshopps on Dr. Fosters that's rated up to 200 GPH and one that's rated up to 300GPH. Knowing that I'll need a pump...

    powerheads?

    I'm not sure how good that one is form Petco but the first one I bought from them was horrible. I have 2 Hydor Korlia Nano 425's in my 30 and to be honest I think I may need more flow. It all depends on my return when i finish my sump. I got mine from an online from Big Al's for $26 each...

    New arrivals

    it's a 30 gal so I don't want to crowd it. And I really want to wait until the clowns settle and the new skimmer comes in to help out as the one that came on the HOB refuge is OK but not great. Working on trying to get a ten gal setup to put under the tank (very little room) so I can remove...

    New arrivals

    they were tank bred and raised and seem to be used to me after only a week. If i get close to the glass they come right up to inspect what I'm doing. probably think I'm crazy sitting there watching them for so long. I'm thinking of getting one or two more small fish once the new skimmer comes...
