  1. Maybe there is something wrong with your pipings / position of the pipings.

    Why do you need to have the intake from IOS?

    I thought you just put the FR beside your sump and let the pump pumps in the water and out thru the FR back into the sump?

    the problem is i do not have a sump :( ... the return flow seems OK...so i dont think it's pipings issue. ...how i wish i started out with a custom made tank... and not to regret now...

  2. Wah bro, your FR needs so high powered pump?

    Cannot drive leh even with a 3000/h ... Already overpower the fr recommended... My fr intake from the iOS thought a 700-800cm hose and then utube down into the ios.. Maybe this explained why I need a overpower pump...

    Bro, can reserved th Mandarin for me ? I can pick up this coming fri evening or Sunday morning.. depending on ur location. Tks.

  6. I tried ehiem 3000 , It is not drawing water from the tank when set it up outside the tank. I set it up outside the tank because it is too big for my iOS, and i ended up, set up an additional small sump inside m iOS which means I used 2 pumps for the fr. I had no problem setting up an external canister without an additional pump earlier on. Any advise bro? I read ehiem 3000 it said I need to do suction for external setup, can any bro advise how do I do that?

  7. Actually I am not suggesting remove the sponge.. Just verify for troubleshooting purpose.. The sponge is useful to prevent media back flow... We need to clean the sponge once a while during maintenance...

    From your reduce media and sponge experiment.. knowing the setup lack of flow but not choke..

    Is it possible shorten your pipe from pump to FR. And don't connect series with your UV.. 1800l/h? If really 1800l/h shld be sufficient... May be check again...

    Cheers..

    bro, i had shorten the hose from pump to FR and i am not connecting to a UV. I googled and found the rate of flow for this FR is 1000l/h. I have no idea why it's not working on a 1800l/h pump. I tried with a 1200l/h pump, and it wasn't working too. The outlet current was reasonably strong, and i had no idea why the phosballs wasn't moving alot. Do i need a strong pump than the FR recommended one for pallets than other media?

  8. Removed sponse at reactor bed and reduced media. Should i get a stronger pump? I am already dolphin 808 which i think the flow rate is about 1800l/h

    can take some pics on your FR setup.. Most likely flow not sufficient.. Do you check or clean yr sponge before adding media. Check any place choke or slow down the flow...

    Alternatively, try below....

    Could be too much media added, try reduce some and monitor.

    Or reduce path from pump to FR...

    If not change slightly strong pump...

    I reduced the phosballs media, and removed the sponge at the reactor bed, managed to get some trumpling at the bed and i feel it's not strong enough...i will try to get a 2000l/h pump and try again..

  10. hi bro, i got a 2nd hand skimz 120 fr and is feeding with a 1000l/lh pump. It has been running for 30mins and the materials are not fluidizing. There is flow from the outlet. I am connecting the central tube to the inlet, is this right? What else can i check?

    fluidize materials - seaslug phosban.

    Thanks.
