SDartifex Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 lol its a type of sand carib-sea produces. It's pretty standard stuff; more than likely your using it (or something very similar in size and composition) and just didn't know. Link to comment

qualitycontrol Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 How did you end up with the Mame? Was it hard to get? Link to comment
JR! Posted February 21, 2013 Author Share Posted February 21, 2013 i got it from another user on here. they're pretty easy to get straight from mame design. just email them and theyll walk you through it. Link to comment
qualitycontrol Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Expensive too. I am working with someone who is producing them and is in the design state. We will see what comes of it. Link to comment
JR! Posted February 21, 2013 Author Share Posted February 21, 2013 id be interested to see how that goes. it really would be nice to have something made in the states. Link to comment
JR! Posted February 22, 2013 Author Share Posted February 22, 2013 d40 got here just in time to take pics of dead sps Link to comment
malady Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Expensive too. I am working with someone who is producing them and is in the design state. We will see what comes of it. not too expensive just bought a mame, silence cap, and adapter for about 210 shipped brand new from a japanese vendor just wait for a day with good exchange rates Link to comment
dlogfx Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Looks like a cool build. When I first started my 60p I was going for the same look you are after. Everything changed when I got the Mame overflow. I just could not trust that thing. I had so many close calls with it not overflowing(actually one flood after a long power outage) that I decided to drill and save the headache. Not to mention how long it took to clean and how carefull I had to be. Just too much work for me. I still think its the sweetest looking aquarium equipment you could buy. Link to comment
qualitycontrol Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 id be interested to see how that goes. it really would be nice to have something made in the states. I will let you know. I got an email this morning with some information. He is building two models ~160GPH and ~360GPH overflows. He is working on his bends because when he is bending the glass, he gets a little bit of constricting, so he said he is going to spend the day ironing out the issues. Lets hope he works out his details so we can have a product that is a little easier to get. Link to comment

How much flow was going through the return section? I've only had this problem when I'm not pumping enough water to get the Venturi going properly Link to comment
