![]() trying it on a 5g will produce a lot of micro bubbles try it on a bigger container. If not fill up a bath tub and test it there. But I agree mag 1800 is way more than what you'll need on that tank but it gives you a flexibility when you want to upgrade in the future into a bigger tank. Trust me you will upgrade

![]() Ya, I changed the design a bit, and found that the 1800 just added too much heat to my little tank too going to use a Quiet One 4000 and put it in the overflow fro just the closed loop.

![]() Well, Been a while but I finally got LR and sand in the tank. Just put in today. Closed loop is running, seems OK flow, Not heavy for corals but should be plenty adequate. Pentair 3000 on closed loop, pump is in the Overflow so 0' head and a Mag 350 fro the sump return.
My camera has taken a dump last week, the lens wont come out. I'll get some pics as soon as I can. 40 Lbs Tonga LR. 3 pcs $238 LOL. Think I will need more tho. Not sure how I will aquascape it yet, Might get some Fiji or Vanatu to finish it off. We;ll see when the water clears up |

![]() Thx, but clean, well...... Thats after 36 hrs with a towel over tank to rid Cyano. Was getting real bad. Watching my feedings now. Have some pellet food, so should be able to minimize waste and excess nutrient's.
