i actually wanted to go with the aqua ultra but i was scared the flow would be way to fast for the UV to work properly. i could be wrong but my 1300 gallon is running 8000 gallons per hour on 6 feet of height. thats why i was gonna go with a seperate unit in my overflow

thats true, but i catch myself looking at them a lot longer than my aros lol. i guess its just a phase. just wondering chen are u planning on building another tank?? how is everything going to fit when all your stock is full grown.

oic yah its always good to have a backup.. i didnt do that thinking that it is a closed system but you never know i guess.

got it built in place, i had the stand built in 2 sections to get it to fit in the basement. drip is working awesome no more water changes!! yes i am in alberta

oic well i dont think a hole on the elbow will work, im sure your pump will be strong enough to keep pumping the water. i woouldnt go with too big of a pump if the flow is too strong your bacteria will not settle.

yah the tank is glass.. for now i am stocking a trio of leos and a trio of henleis, but i think when there mature ill just take out a pair of hens.

im using a powerhead right now so the water doesnt get stagnant.. im just waiting for the UV sterilizer then im going put a pump there. i was going to completely cut the overflow off then i figured it would be a good place to put all the heaters for the rays

hey Chen i usually rarely ever put in driftwood when i have even one aro but this tank imo was too big to leave bare. I tried to use as little as possible however i havent seen them run into the driftwood but more so getting injured by jumping and hitting the lids. thanks

hey Ron not to sure what you mean by in the event of a leak? also you shouldnt have dead spots if you get a big enough ultima you can use a pretty large pump.
