Alright I think I will just wait and see what happens. I sure feel bad though. Thanks for the quick replies.
Unfortunately when I recently setup a sump for my system there was a spike in nitrite and even a small amount of ammonia. I ended up killing my...
I will ask the LFS where the rock came from and hopefully I can get a pic as well. I'm not too worried though, worst case scenario is that it dies in...
Unfortunately I don't have any pics this time around, but I will definitely get one up if I can. I bought a few pounds of live rock today to put in...
When I kill the power to the return pump the overflow stops flowing when the water level in the tank goes below the slots in the pre filter box. At...
I removed the black from from inside the U tube just as you mentioned. As for the sound reduction I just stuck a piece of foam inside the pvc as...
Yeah I got it. I even figured an easy way to make the system silent so I'm pretty satisfied. I never doubted the product, I just needed to know what...
EDIT: I think I solved the problem. I removed all the foam (including inside the U tube) and all of a sudden the flow is greatly increased. Thank you...
When I allow the pump to run at maximum pressure the display tank quickly fills with water. So the overflow box is indeed not keeping up for some...
My water level sits about 1 1/4 inches below the highest point of the tank frame.
Well I just did an experiment with the box using a 5 gal bucket and a garden hose. No attachments, no pumps, no restrictions of any kind, and my...

I understand what your saying, but quite frankly it has nothing to do with the return pump. I tested the flow rate by allowing the overflow box to...
Thank you, however this was one of the first things I tried. Regardless of the water level of my display tank in relation to the overflow box, the...
Thanks inwall75.
I recently got an eshopps PF-300 overflow box and am now using it with a Rio 1400 pump. Long story short, the overflow box is only flowing at...
I think I read somewhere that the tsunami in 2004 actually helped the corals very much because it got rid of a huge pest algae problem that was going...
Thanks again for the positive feedback. Yes, that is a bubble coral and I've had it for exactly 1 month and 3 days.
Thank you :D I don't mean to toot my own horn or anything but I've really put a huge effort into this tank. When you read my original post I talked...
Looking good :D I wish I could keep stuff like that.
