There usually OK.. I had a bicolor that at every coral it could get ahold of. I've had several Coral Beauty's and my ex currently has one in her reef with no issues. I have a Potters Angel in my tank now and it only eats Xenia.. hasn't messed with anything else except it helps keep the caulerpa...

I think I'm going to go pick some up tonight for a bare bottom tank project

I have a 6gallon rubbermaird container inside of my sump that I drilled about 15-20 2" holes in and I have the overflow spa flex going directly into the tubberware container and the lines are submerged about an inch.. this has helped to eliminate the issues I was having. After I actually change...

Well i finally got it fixed last night I think I'm comfortable with it now I didn't leave it running while I'm at work though since there's no salt or anything in it.. I shortened and further straigtened up the overflow lines coming into the sump, adjust the flow into each overflow with the ball...

LOL.. Don't worry they'll be 2x250w MH's and 2x96watt PC actinics=) but I have some Icecap fans and they seem pretty quiet..

thanks guys. Rustysnail..Yeah very similar to Doug's picture of his old overflow on Durso site. Except. I drilled the holes for the bulkhead in the back wall of the tank and only have an overflow box in the tank itself.. I'm going to switch the pumps tonight. I put some huge ball valves on last...

I'll try to snap a few tonight I don't have a way to host them though=(

Thanks for the replies. I'll try the plugging one of the standpipes tonight and look through the durso page again and see if I can figure anything out. It wouldn't surprise me if I only needed one of the drains to run that mag 9.5 I originally designed the overflow to handle the mag 12 with...

I love the brittle stars but don't keep them anymore I've lost a few hundred dollars in fish the the big 8-10" green brittle star I used to have.. The little bastard even ate a pygmy angel..

think the mag 12 will be good to use or would it blow everything around>?

What size bulkhead for Internal Overflow on 55gal I'm going to be doing a Internal Overflow on my acrylic 55 witht he durso on the back wall using more than likely a 6"x6" internal overflow box.. My question is what size bulkhead should I use? and what size return pump should I use? I currently...

I am in the process of putting my bak pak back unto my 25 gallon reef/anenome tank/ The bak pak is running a MJ 1200 and Iam going to add a wooden airstone also. Iam curious if there is a way I can modify the collection cup to feed the skimmate into a larger container. I leave town alot and need...
