JJLigs Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 I am having the same issue after over two months running my mod set up. Chamber 1... my heater Aquion pro Chamber 2... 1 Polish Filter 2 Eshoppe sump filters I have a bag of matrix biomedia and some smaller pieces of rubble rock Chamber 3... 1 bag of Matrix Bio Carbon I have stock coralife return pump (just because I haven’t decided which one I want to change to yet) and my output nozzle is a spin head there is tons of water coming out of chamber 1 and into chamber 2 but chamber 3 still keeps emptying. I have reversed the construction of my mod (took out parts starting from chamber 3 working back) to see if I can pin point what is causing the flow interruption yet nothing seems to be making sense. Also what tab are you guys speaking of to increase flow? Quote Link to comment

banasophia Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Hi, can you post a pic? You probably just need to add more water, but there are other issues that could be happening, so a pic would help us advise. And welcome to Nano-Reef! 1 Quote Link to comment

Always top off in Ch. 2 or 3. Agree! I turn on my pump, wait for all the levels to adjust, and then add enough water into chamber 3 so it’s about 1 1/2 -2 inches from the top of chamber 3. 1 Quote Link to comment
