Amazing set up!! Few questions if I may ask. What tubing sizing connections to hard line in your 250 RM plumbing? Also on the Pax N18, are you using 3/4 ID lines pulling water from where in sump? And which area do you run it back into the sump area? Thanks!!
@@Portcityreef Thanks! I used 32mm pvc for the ReefMat, I replied to another person detailing how I did it. The pax tubing is 12/16mm and I installed quick release fittings which make it easier to pull out of sump. The output hose goes into the filter sock section which also gives good flow in the sump.
@@benlee9647 I tried fans last summer and they didn’t really work, aircon did the trick tho. If you don’t have aircon then a chiller would probably work best.
Tank looks great! I am just setting up a Cade 1500 Peninsula and will be delighted if it looks half as good as yours after 10 months! what media are you using in the sump?
@@Aquatic_Amigo I got all the plumbing from my LFS, you have to cut the main pipe a few inches below the gate valve and glue in a 40-32mm reducer. Then add a couple unions, some 45 and 90 degree pvc angles and about a metre of 32mm pvc. I just cut it all to fit first doing bit by bit then when I was happy with it I glued it all together.
Beautiful setup ❤
Awesome idea with the rail and cutting it 🙌👌✌️
Thanks! 😊
Wow that sump was beautiful. nice work

Thats what I want exactly. Dont know enough about dosing and Sydney gets hot in summer and have no aircon. maybe get fans inside the sump.

Beautiful setup. That is professional. Do you have a step by step on how you setup your sump?
Thanks! 😊
I basically just installed the return pump, ReefMat and skimmer first, then everything else just fitted in between the gaps.

@@gap9992 Thanks! ☺️

Are you still useing the reef factory 5000 pump ?
@@Aquatic_Amigo Yes it’s a great pump
whats the name of the coral that looks like a torch. The one you says opens 3 times its size
It’s a heliofungia plate coral
3 tangs in a 80 gallon ? I give it 2 months before white spot breaks out lol
I had 3 tangs in my old 70g, this tank is a bigger 98g and I’ve had no issues at all 😊
@@shadyrarosreeflucky you mate
How do you keep your pH high?
I clean my skimmer regularly and always open the door next to the tank to get fresh air in the room.
@@shadyrarosreef do you dose Red Sea NoPox?
@@b3astmod341 No, I use Quantum phosphate remover
