Any time man. I have been there and done that. Figured i would try to get ya off to a good start.
Your skimmer, on your tank, is a definite set back......
Your tank needs some time and some reading into the "pro-biotices" wont hurt.
Glad to hear ya added some more flow. What exactly did you add?
i add a 950hr pump just like the one i had but got it placed so that the hole tank is got good circulation, no ware for anything to settle down in the tank i found a 20 long that im in the process of truning into a sump, just got the glass dividers today so hopefully i can have it runing in the next two weeks cuz i see wat u were saying about not enough so def gona do it right and do the research first.
i started to get the nitrates/ phosphates under control under the and the algae is dieing off each day. Its like magic, had this tank for years never fixed that prob or at least not till i tried to turn it into a reef and it feels good to be on the right step for once thanks everyone for ur input. KISS....
started the sump build for the tank.
20gallon long/ dividers
coral reef skimmer
pound pump 900gh retrun
bio balls live sand/ rock
will have pics later today if every thing gose good should be on the tank and running by next week
only thing i need to get is overflow box for tank and dont think im gona try to build that but the rest is all DIY AKA KISS
