I've mentioned before that I don't think the flow in my tank is good enough. It's a 120, and it has 2 koralia evo 1050s and a maxijet with the propeller mod. I don't count my return since it's not very strong. I'm going to have some funds available from selling at a frag swap next month, hopefully $200-300. If it were your tank, what would you do? Obviously scrapping them for Vortechs isn't feasible. Would you start over, add more pumps, put in a closed loop, or something else? I could easily ...

I haven't updated my pics in a while, but I've been fighting with the tank a lot. I have had some issues with frags not growing, and even a complete lack of polyp extension in SPS with browning out too. On top of that I got a GHA outbreak. I thought I'd been doing ok, but it really forced me to take a long, hard look at the way I kept my tank. I had cheaped out on my test equipment, so I decided it was time for an upgrade. I replaced my years old swing arm hydrometer with a refractometer, and ...

I noticed that my black and white brittle star hasn't been as active as usual recently, and last night I noticed that one of his legs seemed like it had about a half inch piece missing when he was close to the glass. I was a bit worried, but today it got much, much worse. I saw what appear to be 1-2 inch long pieces of brittle star leg all over the tank, some still moving a bit. The main disc had one leg attached but it looked like the top had come open too. It was as if the whole star just fell ...

I put together my new system last summer having purchased the new display tank from an old high school classmate via Facebook. He said it was 90 gallons, and I never had any reason to question it. I knew the dimensions, as I built the stand and canopy myself. I've always calculated everything out and listed it as a 90 gallon because I am not familiar with larger tank dimensions. A few days ago I was listening to a podcast and they said a 90 gallon was something different than what I had, so today ...

I don't think I'm getting enough flow, but my pumps gph seems to be high enough. What would you do if you had a 90 gallon tank with 2 Koralia Evo 1050 powerheads and a return pump? The ph's are positioned in the back corners both facing the middle of the front pane of glass, and the return is on the back right side pointed straight left. Would you redirect pumps? Add pumps? Keep in mind budget is a concern here. I can't just go out and buy vortech pumps or anything like that.
