Well I been reefing for one year, and most of what I know I have learned from you guys, I been reading this website everyday for over a year now, and I just wanted to take a sic and thank all of you for all the information about Reefs.

I will take pics as I make this upgrade.

Any help/ ideas / suggestions will be greatly appreciated




Tank will be seating on 2nd floor, and everything else in the basement.

I have a leak from bottom of the Skimmer chamber, next to valve, I tried to unscrew and clean the gasket, but it still leaks, can anyone let me know how to stop the leak, I did try to tightening the screws, but I don’t want to over tighten since as you guys can see there nylon screws, Silicone?

thanks
