    how would you set-up a new tank?

    You should do a normal tank cycle, I would wait at least 4 - 6 weeks before adding any corals. You could add some damsels? Also I would NOT run to much filtering equipment during the cycle, your only going to be removing the bacteria you need for your new system. Most important thing, take your...

    Plumbing Question for new tank

    I agree with the back up drain, I try to install them when ever I can, sure makes sleeping and going out of town eaiser to think about. No one wants to come home to a flooded house, because a Mexican Turbo Snail or some algae wanted to use your overflow for a water slide :D

    Plumbing Question for new tank

    ?? This has nothing to do with an ATO, we where talking about an overflow, you said " Dont ever install a valve on your overflow" Im explaning why it donst matter if you do.

    Hey where are you buying your bulkheads and stuff?

    Plumbing Question for new tank

    Here is flow factor problem. If you keep the bulkhead submerged you will have a full siphon which is how you get good GPH ratings. The added pressure from the water being above the bulkhead forces the siphon to be much stronger. People sometimes have bad flow if the water level is...

    Plumbing Question for new tank

    Its not to bad, use a guide and a wood router to cut the overflow slots. Another member let me in on that trick, it works really well.

    Plumbing Question for new tank

    Whats the problem with a valve? Ive done that on plenty of tanks, works great! If you close the valve to much = you will raise the tank level and starve the sump pump. That might also cause an overflow in the main tank, but most sumps dont have enough water in the final baffle area to...
