    Reefs Reef Tank

    Thanks for the photos been waiting for some look great!! Can you take one of the whole tank from standing back for me so I can see what you have been up to with the rock
  3. On second thought why not put the balls back if they worked?
  4. I had the same problem when I set up the new sump< I fixed it by putting a milk crate down the end the water comes in so it lifted the pipe out of the water before dropping onto filter wool then through some rock in the crate. Doesn't look very pro but works well. The filter wool seems to help dirt entering the tank. If you want I will take a photo for you.
