We were talking about a DC pump modify to fit my existing base but i will leave it up to Victor to decide. My pump currently pulling 2500lph i just want to bring it up to 3500lph.

The wave in your video is very impressive, but I'm not surprised. Nicely done thus far Steve, your fish will be very muscular living in that current. Do you plan to ramp down the flow at all at night? I know the ocean doesn't 'turn off' at night, but the current is definitely altered with the lunar cycle. Again, looking good bro!

Mike, thank you. the waveboxes running 24/7 but the 4 tunze 6305 is on night mode. At night all 4 pumps running at 30%. I want to keep the waveboxes running at night due to feeding and keeping stuff off the sandbed. Even at 30% the stream still provide pretty good amount of flow...

I am not sure about muscular fish cuz i found couple Cardinals stuck on the Tunze outlet screen

Steve the tank is really coming along thanks for sharing those full tank pictures. I agree with Melev that your camera skills don't do it justice.

Also any chance at getting an updated list of everything that you have in there currently?

 

[Bax]

Those vids are great! And your tank is amazing! Can't wait to see it "fully stocked"!

That skimmer is seriously sick!

 

[GSMguy]

Cardinals die steve you cant really think your tunze killed a healthy fish right?

I have approx 40 fish in the system. I need to stop adding fish because of the ich outbreak in the tank. I will add more once the ich gone...

That's not possible. It doesn't go away. If you don't prevent it from getting into the tank, it is always present. Your fish may be able to build up an immunity to it, but when something big happens and they are stressed, it can reappear.
