The wall must come down

No problem.

I finished the plumbing and have my RO/DI line hanging in there. My topoff for the other tank is almost full and then i will start filling the 300.
 
The filling begins.

I thought about using 2. I also thought about buying a booster pump to increase the output of mine. But i still need to put a bubble trap in my sump and wont have my skimmer body till maybe tuesday, so i dont know exactly where im going to place the trap. By then the tank will be pretty close to being filled. Thank you though.
 
Lol you can borrow my booster pump if you want. :)

Is yours Paul?

nope not until after we get back from MACNA.


Billy, looks great and it is coming along well :) I am wondering how those 4 enductors are going to preform on that dart. If they do well I might just have to add a few :D
 
Well so far there is just under 7" of water in it.

Triggerfish ran 2 of them on a dart in his tank and said they were restricting the pumps flow some but were increasing flow in the tank. I hoping that with 4 they wont restrict the pump and create a good amount of flow in the tank.
 
I thought an eductor needed to have some pressure to work properly. Without enough pressure all they do is create more head on the pump and restrict flow. I've been researching them myself some, and was wondering how 2 of them would do on a dart gold. Really interested to see how they do on your setup.
 
IS IT FILLED YET?IS IT FILLED YET?IS IT FILLED YET?IS IT FILLED YET?

I will let you know how well they work. I have read they work better on pressure rated pumps but do work on non pressure rated pumps.
 
Tank is at about 11.5"

The clarity of the Starphire is absolutely amazing.
 
Hehe should of had me bring the booster pump, would be much more water in there. :)

Cant wait to see that thing with some rock in it.

:)
 
are you done filling that tank yet Billy lol.i have 30g of ro/di in my storage if that will help you get it full today.
 
Not yet. It should be pretty close to being ful today. I am going to stop filling when it get close so i can put my bubble trap in when i get the skimmer.
