weileong Posted November 27, 2003 Share Posted November 27, 2003 Currently using the canister filter and will be removing it gradually as my refrugium is ready. Currenty main water circulation is done with the canister output into a rain bar, can see the corals waving gently in the water. Secondary circulation done with a SICCA NOVO tune to the lowest 25% output. Had installed a I~Ref and using a Wei Pro 500 pump which is rated for 600l/h. However the water flow seems like super slow like that. Once I removed the canister I will need a pump to take over the circulation. I end up with 3 pumps in the tank which is kind of messy. Thought of getting one more high flow external pump like the ehiem 1250 or 1060 (which is rated for 1200l/h and 2280l/h respectively) for to replace the 3 pumps . Then by using T-joint and ball valve to control the flow into the I~ref and for water cirulation. As the pump is external it will help to reduce a bit on the heat too. The problem I can think off if the pump breaks down then totally no water circulation in the tank. Please give your opinion.
