pgrVII Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 Had been toying around with the idea of putting the skimmer back in,but,really it has been fine without it. Its really cause I was sitting around looking at the tank all weekend 😆 Did my typical (now daily) maintenance,siphon out and algae/nasty stuff,use the feeding tongs to stir the sandbed,then comb it smooth. As well as blow the rocks clean. 2 Quote Link to comment

pgrVII Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 Just now, jack1978 said: Better than GSP? I would say yes? But,thats also coming from someone who hasnt kept GSP,I dont like the stuff. But this seems ok so far,color is cool and different for sure. And I'm trying to do a mixed reef for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment

Orange with speckles of green and a red/purple fringe. Oh yea thats pretty cool looking. Thanks for the recommendation. I will probably do a nice brain coral next and some more zoa and paly frags to add to that rock while everything grows in hopefully. 1 Quote Link to comment
pgrVII Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 And,just really happy to have the tank cleaned up and running more scheduled overall. 2 Quote Link to comment
pgrVII Posted February 11, 2019 Author Share Posted February 11, 2019 So I am looking for an IM mighty jet 326 pump to uprgrade the flow in the tank. The MP10 is obviously awesome,but the added control to dial the return flow is👌 1 Quote Link to comment
righttirefire Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 What are you running for filter and media? Dont you want the flow in that back chamber less to "work" and let the mp10 handle the flow 1 Quote Link to comment

Dont you want the flow in that back chamber less to "work" and let the mp10 handle the flow I dont run anything but chemipure blue and floss in the intakes other than that its bare in the chambers. I like the idea of being able to pause the return when doing a daily cleaning, but,also the idea of a good wave surge to help blow stuff off the rocks etc should be pretty awesome. 1 Quote Link to comment
righttirefire Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 So it's less about additional flow and more about additional control 1 Quote Link to comment

Yea I thought about that,but i dont need that much filter turn over,the MP10 does a great job moving the tank water around as you well know cause you run em too sir Jack. 1 Quote Link to comment
