Trial and error! May be too early/quick of a test for my conclusions but: I removed the sock a week ago and ?randomly? started seeing more algae and brown in shaded areas around the sand bed. Some coral started to seem a little less happy. All even after doing a 50% water change (because I did...

Anyone have any opinions or advice worth you time on filter socks? Why I ask: I have a reefer nano which I modded the sump for a refugium. So to get the sock to replace I have to remove the top off container to get my skimmer out to be able to remove the sock. It?s a real pita do do weekly at...

Unused $100 Great compact skimmer that works well once broken in. Pickup or can ship.

I have an icecap k2-50 if interested. Not used, $100

Interested. Check pm

Have a cross ship going right now for a new base unit. Overall their support had been as good as can be expected. Hopefully this will be the last major issue I have! Aside from the issue I found it to be very intuitive and amazing for peace of mind (even though I only have a 21g). I do agree...

Wow! Very nice!

I have an icecap 1k on my reefer nano. It?s in the back middle mounted on the overflow. Initially it seemed like a great spot and flow not too much other than some sand moving in the front middle of the tank. I recently added some livestock and corals and while the corals didn?t seem to mind...

Been out of the hobby for 10 years and just got back in with a Reefer Nano. Much smaller than the 46 bowfront with diy just about everything that I previously had setup, but the current setup with internal overflow and sump is 100x better thanks to Red Sea and a little DIY. Starting out clean...
