I'm getting ready to upgrade my tank from a 75 gallon to a 140 with a 40 gallon sump. I need to upgrade my skimmer and had considered building the CS1 from Avast. It's rated for up to 200 gallons and comes with a sicce PSK 2500 pump with avast modded volute. My intention for the tank is to concentrate on SPS and LPS corals. Any input would be helpful.

Hi, Experimenting with using Kent Nitrogen sponge in a reactor with some low flow for nitrate reduction. What flow would you suggest for a start and how would you modify it as the filter matures? I've read about denitrators and flow is in the order of drop per minute... would you think in a reactor setup I should be doing the same or should I have some low flow pump (50GPH?) directly connected? what should I wait/Look for to modify my flow through it? Thanks ...
