  • Is using an Eheim 2217 a bad thing?

  • @SHMIBLY For a reef, it wouldn't bee the best option.

  • what about fish only? Is it hurting the quality of the tank as it is?

  • @SHMIBLY For a fish only system it can work like a charm.

  • Hi. Do you have a video on aquarium plumbing? Need to know about PVC , gate valves, ball valves, check valves.what I am looking for is how to place all these things in order. I have a 125 gal aquarium with a 55 gal sump.

    Thx.

  • @Khloe04Men I somewhat cover this on the rebuild process. Start with the video titled "How To 90g Reef Aquarium Setup Day 1" and work your way up to day 10 or further. Good luck.

  • @SuprBen Your welcome.

  • @newyorksteelo Thanks for your answer. I am relatively new to this hobby and hope to achieve a full functional ecosystem similar to yours some day :) With all the help from you, you're certainly making my goal more attainable and my life easier. Once again thank you.

  • @SuprBen I don't. I have been gone up to 2 weeks at a time without feeding. My reef is designed in way that it can support it self with natural food growing in the reef. The Deep Sand Bed is full of live, so is the live rock, and the refugium below creates a continuous growth of phytoplankton to feed my corals. My main concern would be the top off, but even for that I have a 20g tub filled with RO water that would top off the system for 3 weeks to a month. Its a full blown ecosystem.

  • How do u feed and maintain ur system when you go away for periods of two weeks?
