Re: 180 gallons up in this!!!! NWKRC!

are you planning on getting a bigger skimmer then before adding more fish? maybe an additional one?

Re: 180 gallons up in this!!!! NWKRC!

I have heard that it is better to have 2 skimmers rather than just one big one. Same rationalle as more than one heater. back up. If i were you, I would look to add a skimmer if your sump can handle the additional equipment

Re: 180 gallons up in this!!!! NWKRC!

well i am actually going to try to hook my current skimmer back in the overflow i think. i need a constant non changing level of water and i think it would work perfect. i just need to take some measurements

I just thought it was worth pointing out... That this build thread sucks. Because all you guys have talked about for the last five pages... IS FISH!!! Snore!

ummmm, so you are jealous that you are know being talked about? Is that what makes a "good" thread? You are clearly tired from lack of sleep and too much partying. Maybe you should take a nap and come back when you are more levelheaded.
