Another option you could look at is the JECOD DCT series Pumps - DCT4000. I've been using this for the last 9 months with no problems so far in my sump on the same size tank as you have. Very quiet and has 10 speed settings, not that you will use the highest setting, but its nice to know you...

will not be drilling into the tank so cant have twin stand pipe or x aqua, i understand the need to have emergancy outlet (Herbie in my case), which is why a weir seems the best way (unless you have another idea ) going forward. Will be ordering this tank - sump - cabinet next week, so the...

Ahhh that makes sense concerning the co2 loss. thinking about sealing the wet/dry section to reduce the loss even further. Maybe a silly question but if i have 4 x flow coming in and 10 x flow going out, i will not have enough water coming in the sump as more volume of water is going out...

Was thinking of a Herbie overflow, which means i need 2 bulk heads to achieve this. was thinking of using http://www.cpraquatic.com/products/overflows.html The CS102 1200gph has two 1" bulkheads. Would this be ok for my tank size???? What would your advice be concerning the flow rate going...

Im more of a hands on person when it comes to learning, when installed i should start to grasp the pro and cons. Learnig is all part of the fun:) Not going to be easy with the placement of the tank, but will look into this in more detail. as you say better safe than sorry.;) Great little...

Hi all, New tank size will be 90*45*45cm (180Liter / 48gallon). so will i need a overflow system following the 10* flow rule. Looking at the following page http://www.cpraquatic.com/products/overflows.html the CS90 with 600gph with one bulk head is fine. However i would like to have a...

So the sump size should be ok for my needs. Never away from home for more than 2 days on the run/ thx again Foxfish

foxfish thx for the reply. So with a tank size of 90*45*45cm and the water level droped by 1inch for example, with my sump size of 55*35*36 how much water would it drop in the sump?? The sump has not been made yet so the size could be changed. i would like to be safe and not sorry in the...

Couple of questions.. Was thinking of using a CPR OVERFLOW or a lifereef. Any recommendations???? Not really possible to have a mains top up value with the position of this tank in my home. Why would you consider this to be so important The reason for the sump is where i live it gets hot in...

Hi all, Im upgrading my tank to a 90*45*45cm and in the process changing to a wet/dry overflow with sump. i was looking at the kind of sump in the following thread......... http://www.barrreport.com/showthread.php/13223-Sump-Demo-and-overflow-installation i was thinking of a sump size of...

You should contact tetra on thier web site www.tetra-service.net or call them on 00800 766 88766 and get the part replaced before you have any problems. As nick said the problem can start 4 month's down the line, so being proactive now will give you some piece of mind.

The tetra tec ex1200 is the only filter i have tried and have been using it for 2 years now, overall its a good filter - easy to clean - easy to prime and good flow. And cheap :) which helps, would love to get a Eheim 2078 but they cost £150+ . Would like compare the eheim and tetra tec to...

Sounds like a great idea and will save my elctricity bill also. Was thinking of putting in some shrimp first and as the new tank will be 60cm-30cm-30cm would you say that 25watt will be enough for the first few weeks. Cheers Mark

I will be setting up another tank in 7 weeks time :D , cant wait to start setting it up. Now my plan for the new filter ( tetra tec ex1200)is to attach it to my existing set up rio 125l ( This tank currently has a tetra tec ex1200 fitted to it already) so i can give it some running in time to...
