jdi1982 Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 (edited) I have had several reef tanks over the years, but haven't had one for the past several years. After looking around here a bit more lately, I got the urge to get one set back up. This one is a bit smaller than the ones I've had in the past, but it's shaping up to be one of my favorites.

It looks great so far. 😊 How high are you running that MP10? I fear blowing my sand out with the ones on my 12 gallon. Quote Link to comment
jdi1982 Posted March 25, 2020 Author Share Posted March 25, 2020 The MP10 is set to run between 20% and 38% at the highest. It moves the sand around a bit on the highest setting, but it seems to be a good job in keeping the sand clean. 2 Quote Link to comment

Bayarear33f Posted January 12, 2021 Share Posted January 12, 2021 Hi, your tank is looking amazing! I have the same exact tank with a few soft and lps. I know you mentioned using filter floss and chemi pure blue. Did you put them in the same chambers or separate them? Quote Link to comment
