I'll be starting the surge tank after easter. that should be interesting. My plan is to keep this tank as quiet as the last two so i'll be grinding brain gears for sure.

thanks Doni. have you made a choice on your new tank yet?

Woodstock · 04-13-2006, 11:19 AM

No... and it is proving to be a very tough decision. I am leaning towards a 120 right now... but we'll see...

Witfull · 04-13-2006, 11:21 AM

180,,,180,,,180

nice setup... love the overflow design

cracker · 04-30-2006, 02:56 AM

FFrankie what are the dimensins of the overflow? Your using 2" drains? That should handle a LOT of flow!

Woodstock · 04-30-2006, 08:24 AM

Good luck with your move Frankie! Are you moving very far?

yeah it can handle a lot but i run it to a refugium so i dont want a lot. I mad the coast to coast for surfice skimming. I love the way it pulls the whole surfice off with no dead spots. I get all my flow in the tank from the closed loop.
No Doni im just moving to a better area. This house is nice but on a busy road and not much fun for my kiddo. The new house has a huge yard and garage for me to diy stuff. and the school is very good too in that area.

Frankie · 05-16-2006, 12:40 PM

I moved the tank to the new house on Sunday. All went well. I have it on the back porch. Filled it last night to leak test it and all looks great! I'm going over there now so i'll get some pictures of the leak test. I hooked up the CL so I could fill it and it still amases me how quiet the ampmaster 3000 is

Woodstock · 05-16-2006, 02:24 PM
