    I thought so. I think once this system is up and running, I'll see if I can find a way to squeeze another Ozotech in there.

    Ozonizer Experince wanted

    Mike, I was wondering if you have noticed a difference in cleaning your tank's front glass? One thing I missed about using the ozone was that I used to clean the glass maybe once a week as opposed to daily without it. I felt between that and the clearer water it was a great addition to the...

    Can you work a small sump off a canister filter?

    If you decide to go with a hang on tank overflow, here is the Lifereef overflow/prefilter box. I had one on my 65 with no issues. It does not require an aqualifter. http://www.lifereef.com/frame.html

    I believe all the components come to about $750. It's big and expensive...just the way I like it. I won't be doing that on my current build but, it is part of my dream tank.

    I took the ozone off my tank because of 2 reasons. 1. I have small kids in the house and didn't want to take any chances and 2. I didn't like the effect it had on my skimmer. I was running it through the Deltec 851 and it turned my skimate almost white, just too strange for me. If I were to...

    What size pump should I use?????

    I have a Reeflo Tarpon for sale here: http://www.njreefers.org/joomla/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=26&topic=14760.0 With your 10ft of head and a couple elbows, you could feed the refugium with the pump and still have 400-600 gph going to the tank.

    Return pump recomendation

    It's not about heat. I need a pressure rated pump to run a manifold return system. If it was just for the return a mag 9 would be great. Thanks.

    Thanks, Phyl Didn't think of that. If I go with that pump, they are 1". Stepping it up to 1.5" is no problem. Thanks.

    Return pump recomendation

    I don't mind drilling the sump, that's why I asked what bulkhead size. Gen-x is one recomendation, who makes the quietest most efficient pump? Gen-X, Iwaki, Poseidon,Pan-World, etc?

    If I can make the room for an external pump, what size bulkhead would I need to put in the sump? 1", 1.5"?

    Return pump recomendation

    I was affraid of that. Guess I'll have to come up with another plan. An external pump really won't work in my plans. No space for that and other equipment.

    Return pump recomendation

    Trying to get my plumbing plan in order and can't decide on a return pump. This is for a Tech 90. Need some recomendations for a submersible pump. I have a Mag 9.5 but I don't think that will do it. Here's the setup.
