I siphon every week my back sump to avoid that. Another one interesting 👍

Great video as always! What is the name of that Stylo?

[@TOMReefer]

Thanks Miguel! That’s a purple Stylo. I got it from Fish Of Hex. I believe he is located in the North East USA. He cuts frags from his tanks and mail orders. Thanks for watching! I’m planning to add an additional video on Wednesdays! What do you think. Maybe a Q and A. Just to get to know you guys a little better. 👍🏻

[@miguelsalty]

TOM Reefer I think that will be great! You have a good amount of subscribers and adding a Q&A can be interesting for the channel

Think both tanks looks really good👍. Have you put the filtersock back yet? And if No have you noticed any difference?

[@TOMReefer]

Hi Johan, Thanks! Yes, I put the filter sock back on yesterday. I noticed a large difference in water clarity without the filter sock. With the filter sock, I notice a really clear, polished look to the water. I believe the corals look a bit better too. The water level is fine, so my guess is the blockage was an older filter sock and my return pump. Thanks for checking in!

Update here? Any best practices for keeping flow up through this sump area?

[@TOMReefer]

Hi Donut, in this case, I had a blockage in one of the baffles. Waterbox have very small baffle openings at the bottom. I had a refugium in the center compartment clogged with chaeto. Just keep things clear for flow. 👍🏻
