Ando Posted March 26, 2009 Author Share Posted March 26, 2009 I was thinking of upgrading my pump to a maxi jet 1100 which is 294 gph. I'm doing a lot of sps coral so do u guys think the maxi jet would be a good choice? I also have a korolia 1. Link to comment

GiantBen Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Nice tank Ando, I'm here for your Rio experience updates :-D Link to comment
Ando Posted April 1, 2009 Author Share Posted April 1, 2009 haha thanks giantBen! I will let u know. Link to comment
GiantBen Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 How's your flow coverage with the K1 where it is? I have mine in about the same place and was thinking about moving it. I am not sure that the back right and front left are getting good coverage. Our scapes have similar footprint. Link to comment
Ando Posted April 1, 2009 Author Share Posted April 1, 2009 It's getting a decent amount of flow but I think I need more.. that's why I want to get a Y locline where the return water comes back into the tank... Then I can move it into two different spots. Link to comment

Then I can move it into two different spots. Try the MP20, that will give you some really nice flow. Link to comment
Kmon Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 read the entire thread tank looks nice! question are you doing any dosing to your tank or just weekly water changes Link to comment
Ando Posted April 1, 2009 Author Share Posted April 1, 2009 I dose my tank with B-ionic calcium and alkalinity. I also do a 5 gallon water change a week. Thanks for checking it out. -I just got a Rio 6 pump for more flow in my tank.. should be receiving it in a few days. Link to comment

Thanks for checking it out. -I just got a Rio 6 pump for more flow in my tank.. should be receiving it in a few days. I have the RIO too and its great. Keep an eye on the small filter that is installed in the pump. It was clogging up pretty frequently and I eventually just removed it. Link to comment
Ando Posted April 1, 2009 Author Share Posted April 1, 2009 Thanks, That is what I have herd.. I will probably just take it out. Link to comment

Ando Posted April 10, 2009 Author Share Posted April 10, 2009 Thanks again. Anyone dose magnesium? I dose B-ionic calcium and alkalinity... and was also thinking dosing magnesium... I guess it's supposed to keep the calcium and alkalinity levels steady. anyone? Link to comment
Ando Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 Here are some pics of my DIY light stand. It's made out of solid aluminum. Check it out. It's not finished yet but it's almost there. What do you guys think? -? I may paint it black im not sure yet..I kind of like the metal look of it. Link to comment
BigART Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Looks like it's turning out quite nicely. Is that galvenized steel or aluminum? Link to comment
