    I have the fifty gallon version, on my previous tank I made a cabinet for everything. I removed the right door and moved the the controller cabinet next to it
    But I needed a place for my apex dosers. So I put a 1/2 piece of plywood cut to the size of the tank and stand in between the door with a cutout at the bottom for cables works well

    @freedomaquatics6328 Год назад

    Looks very nice CJ. You might try and point the santa monica outlet nozzle towards the inlet of the skimmer, not directly but just to suck up any extra gunk. Seems to work well for me. Although my scrubber does not produce much since I also run a filter roller.

  • @CodyFlock

    Something to think about - how you have your heater and probe locations, if your return pump fails, the probe water will cool down so it will keep the heater on indefinitely and could super heat the return chamber water.

    • @CJSAQUARIUMS
      @CJSAQUARIUMS  Год назад +1

      They have that covered the heating element also has its own thermostat built in independent of the controller. If it hits its maximum it still shuts off. This system is really nice multiple redundancies built in 💪🏾💯

      Now that I’ve added some life to the tank I’ve had to adjust them a lot. It’s very direct flow. I think they are better suited for supplemental flow not primary. I more then Likely will add gyres along with them for a better pattern in the tank.
