I've been a busy little bee this morning.
I just killed a credit card to order a boatload of stuff from petsolutions LOL
I ordered a mag 18 drive for the return when I upgrade this 125g this year, figured now while I have the money available I should start gathering my build stuff. Also got a silicate test, trying ti figure out if the pool silter sand is the reason for some diatoms that come and go in this tank. Got a new frag rack, some frag plugs, a bucket of red sea salt, gonna try that salt and see how it does. Also got a backup aqualifter for the overflow just in case, some ph calibration fluid for my ph probe on the 125g, a foam filter to put in my sump for an emergency qt tank if I need it. I also finally got the current light hanging mount for the new 60g I'm building next.
hard to see almost $400 go by but this is stuff I know I will need in the short and long term.
Which if course brings me to a question as ususal! hehe
Will a mag 18 be enough flow for a dual overflow drilled 180 or 220 tank? I plan on getting rid of my refugium in the sump and going berlin method so the increased flow would be good right? I hope to get a 180 tank for this tank's upgrade, might even go to 220g if the tank is nice and the price is right. lol
WHAT!!!!!!!!! Another couple of builds.....Even BIGGER???? Are you like using your roof top or something to place them. LMAO Am so looking forward to seeing those builds (like I can keep up now as it is LOL). I'm still struggling with "Buffy's 1st Ever SW Build" LMAO, 1 step forward and 2 or 3 back. Lil' Red Engine says "I think I can, I think I can" or I'm gonna ask mod to change it to "Buffy's Last SW Build Ever" LOL.
So what do you think guys, is a mag 18 gonna be good enough for the return pump?
