I have bad news to report. Apparently the giant Crocea died today. I just called home to pass on your suggestions about the fuge and he told me about the clam. It has been looking a bit off for a couple of days so we were watching it closely but apparently it expired some time today. I am so sad.
Meanwhile onto the fuge issue. We have 2 currently unused connectors in the sump (for the chiller) one of which is much lower than the current fuge output. What if I move the fuge output to that connector as a test before raising the tank? I would think that would accomplish the same thing. The only real difference is that the new outlet is under the level of the sump water where the original one is right at water level. This would be only for testing purposes. If it works then we can drain the fuge and rais it up on some 2 X 4s or something to get it higher than the sump.
Anybody see any problems with this plan?
Thanks for all of your help.
