Wish me luck

I changed my sump today. I am nervous about it but I think we are going to be ok. I got the new Marinland model 4 and am using one chamber as a refugium and the other as a sump. This thing seems like a cool sump. I also upped my flow to the max. I am running the marineland 5500 pumps so with the 4 ft of hose I have its putting more then 1400 gph. I cant believe the improvement in the water flow. I have been removing the bio balls for a few weeks but placed a small ammount of them in this sump with the intention to remove them. I also dident install the bio wheels that this sump was shipped with. I hope this doesent start a cycle. I can only wait at this time.

 

Good Luck!!!! Sounds like a good setup. How many gallons does this thing hold? And by the way, don't be nervous. It'll turn out okay

 

Hope all works out.. I have my fingers and toes crossed for ya... LOL...

 

They said something like 29 or just over 30 gallons. Its a beast. I did a water change just by adding 25 gallons tonight haha. I couledent believe how much water I had to add. I added 25 gallons. I mixed 35 just to cover my butt. Good thing.
