Upgraded tank to maxspect ls-60 (32 gallon + 17 gallon sump) that was on sale. I believe I got the last one. After refund for some issue the whole set up was about 700 including tank, stand, return pump, pipings, sump, gyre and protein skimmer. Still work in progress but loving the stability with bigger size. Upgraded from custome pico 14 gallon. Happy Reefing.
All filled up, return pump currently running at 50% Flow. Temp controller set to 78*. Dialing in the overflow drains for maximum silence!! Still have to set my Apex probes…
Wanting to build a diy sump/refugium out of my old 75 gal tank for the 300 gal, it’ll be my first time doing a diy full sump, any suggestions on how to start and materials/ return pumps that have worked for others?
This is my diy overflow/sump system because the overflow boxes are kinda expensive 😅 I’m using a generic pond pump with 1in pvc and a sponge to prevent fish from falling in, I rinse and change the sponge daily, and I used fragging cement to seal it off because pvc sealant takes forever to cure
Does this work for return line with manifold/uv line off the right side and return line to the tank?
