What’s in the box!?!? (Starphire 4g Waterbox)

Getting back in the hobby with this beauty!

 

My only complaint so far is the horrible return pump that came with this tank and the fact a replacement Rio 180 would not fit grrr!!

 

-Tank:  4 Gallon Starphire Ultra-Clear Glass Cube - Waterbox

-Lighting: Boost LED par30 Reef Lamp (optics removed)

-Heater: 50W Neo-Therm

-Pump: Stock Jebao pump rated at 40gph but I question this output

-3-4lbs liverock

-No substrate

-Smart ATO (not yet setup)

-Salt: Red Sea Coral Pro

 

Any suggestions on a tiny return pump that is similar in size to a Jebao? I believe the dimensions of stock pump is 1.5"x1.4"x1.0"

 

Otherwise I will be forced to add a small pump to display which I would really like to avoid in this small tank. 

 

Thanks for looking and stay tuned for updates!

Perhaps you could get another of the same pump, and T them together for more output? Or even drill a hole for another return nozzle with that secondary pump.

Thanks! This never crossed my mind, great suggestion. I like the idea of T’ing them together. I do have another small pump laying around that would fit back there.
