Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
The new sump is up and running. The skimmer is going crazy because if a vinegar bath. I also moved it to the middle as it seemed to tight in 1st chamber. I will use the 1st chamber as my fuge.
The hobby can be frustrating and am sure many of us wanted to toss in the towel. However, the enjoyment and friendships keep must of us in. I say start up slowly. Seems some are willing to donate which why this club is great. I too have some coral I can offer.
It looks like everything will fit nicely in the sump.
Now I can try and grow cheato in the fuge. Plan to blackout the back of fuge section with contact paper.
Thanks mark.
Think my biggest stupidity here how and what do I cannot to the dorso overflow under the tank. There is small piece of PVC sticking out if you can see it in the pic I posted.
The new sump has 2 holes for drainage into filter socks/cups. The site states 1" drain but the hole seems to measure 1.25". My drain hose also measures 1.25". The site says sump comes with 1" bulk heads. Do I need the bulk heads? If yes, how do I plumb this?
Any help appreciated.
This is the sump that leaked. If anyone wants to reseal it let me know. Otherwise will be trashed in Tuesday
Measures 28Lx13Hx17W
I will hose it out if someone picks up.
To me seems bruised from being bullied. My sailfin had similar from my YT beating crap out of it. I would shot Humblefish a message. If you need any meds I have some just LMK.
Just got back from picking up the Ruby Red. Is anyone available tomorrow or Sunday to help plumb it? Need to reduce drain to 1 inch. Never did this before
My salinity is at 30PPT or 1.021/1.022SG.
With the weather I knew ATO was running more. Guess I had a slow leak and never realized and my salinity was dropping. Could explain coral loss too.
Not happy about this but as my wife reminded luckily we were home and not on vacation for senone else to...
The sump started leaking bad today. I took all equipment out and drained it and now removed.
Does anyone have a sump for 80g tank or know a reasonable place to buy one.
