    A DC pump can be turned down and others like the Sicce and others can be "throttled" with a simple ball valve to adjust the level in the sump. One of the best ways to keep the sump from overflowing is to keep the sump and components IN the sump clean. Dont ask me how I figured that out lol.

    @libardo-kb5gs 9 днів тому

    When the pumps are off, some of that displaced volumen comes from the overflow...

    • @Harvin-gk7oh
      @Harvin-gk7oh 9 днів тому

      Turn off system, step 2 fill in water in sump and then turn on pump... If sump water deplete, dont add water reduce pump speed because your sump is too small.

    • @libardo-kb5gs
      @libardo-kb5gs 8 днів тому

      @Harvin-gk7oh You could remove some of the cotton and sponge if you have too much in your sump. Of course... You could add more water to the aquarium, I mean, you could raise the water level of the pump compartment and design that compartment slightly bigger. That should give your pump the chance to go a little bit faster; but you should avoid filling up the sump completely, that might overflow the compartments in the sump.. It's evident that you should do an overflow with a height difference between the main and the secondary drainings not too big... But in general, the bigger the pump's flow is, the bigger the pump's compartment should be.. Another tip.. you can use wave makers in the tank, therefore the need for a strong pump will be reduced...

    @Alex_Correa 6 місяців тому

    You don't need any baffles at all. One big sponge on each side of the K1 area is enough to have them controlled . One level for the whole sump is the easiest way to do this.

  • @NewAquariumHobby
    @NewAquariumHobby 6 місяців тому

    Sir why used two glass in every partition to add water from top side. if I use one glass then water can also move to next part. I mean 1st glass has 2 inch gap from bottom and 2nd down 2 inch from top then water can go zig zag plz tell me is it ok. In your small sump water pass below 1st baffle then after 10 inch I connect 2nd baffle and connect 2 inch down then water will pass from up making diagonal movement pass through media. Is it ok or must need 2 baffles before every partition.

    Blue back cross back arowana - How many inches before you should start the tanning process and for how long? Leave the lights on for how many hours? Do you transfer immediately to dark tanning immediately after white tanning? For dark tanning, its full pitch black? For how long also?. I know its a lot of question but appreciate your guidance. Thanks

    I have a roughly 6-8 inch comet goldfish with dropsy in a 10k+ gallon pond. None of the other 40 or so fish in there have any problems but this one has dropsy. It has bloated slowly over several months, i originally thought it was eggs until the scales started to pinecone. I do not believe the problem is anything other than bad genetics because it's a comet based on none of the other fish being affected for several months. But I want to relieve the bloating with salt. Once I remove him from the pond and put him in a quarantine tank what kind and how much salt should I use to suck the water out that is swelling him?

    Very nice system you built. I don't think a sump would be practical for me because I only have a 55 gallon tank. Now I have a Hob and a sponge filter for the tank. I'm thinking about building a 5 gallon bucket gravity filter using k1 media and matala.
