thaks reefmack, that's a solution worth looking into!

I was running x's 2 because I first wanted to get rid of the Bio tubes that came with the RSM130D system, as people mostly said it generated nitrates. I replaced, as suggested, with chemi pure and purigen. Next, I decided to install a Tunze9002 which, of course, required a Stevie T media rack...

In trying to trace my micro bubble problem I have determined that part of the problem is that water does not flow into the chamber of death fast enough to keep the water level high enough to cover the return pump tubes. Looking down from the top I can see where it spills over from the heater...

I continue to be unhappy with, and puzzled by, my mechanical filtration. I seem to have a lot of particulate floating in my tank and I can get rid of it. Currently I have recently upgraded to the Tunze 9002 with Stevie t's media rack. The media rack contains chemi pure elite, purigen, stock...

replace circulation pups? Has anybody replaced the circulation pumps with another product as a solution to micro bubble problem? I did not have much problem prior to installing a Tunze 9002. Now I have some bubbles and have tried the extended intake mod but it still produces bubbles, it stops...

Not familiar with white/blue filters, could you please provide a link?

Thanks for your help. Fine is an adjective that denotes a state of being free from impurities or well with in acceptable parameters.

Anybody have problems or solutrions to lack of water clarity? My chemistry seems fine, all flora and fauna happy and healthy, but I have a lot of tiny specs in my water that I assume are DOC's. I emptied the chamber of death yesterday and replaced with Chemi-pure Elite AND Purigen but it does...
