Equipment

After doing a few "best guess" calculations, it appears the snapper hybrid would flow somewhere around 1500 - 1600 gph with the snapper impeller and the calc'd head loss. The pump actually comes with two impellers which can be changed out. My "best guess" calculations suggest, with head losses, the dart would flow around 2200 - 2400 gph. That's around 30x turnover for the tank. But with the dart impeller and at the calc'd head loss, the pump would pull around 180 watts. I'd ...

In September 2008 I finally talked my wife into letting me set up a saltwater tank.

I guess I missed the recall by marineland on their stealth series aquarium heathers and find out the hard way, when one of them blew up in my aquarium!!!!

Hello, I'm looking purchase one of these three protein skimmers.

I have a 90gal. with medium bio-load. I do tend to over feed a little.

1. Reef octopus 4
2. SWC extreme 160 cone
3. Bubble Magus BM-NAC7 cone.

Which one is the easiest to adjust and does one last longer than the other as far as the pump goes.

Any suggestions would be very helpful.

Thanks.
