I just purchased an amiracle sl150, set it up a day ago, water clearing up a litle bit, but it just wont get that crystal clear quality that i want, equipment is as follows
30 pounds cured LR
60 pounds live sand
cpr backpack with airstone mod
amiracle sl150
60 gallon tank
1 3 in lionfish
1 4 inch yellow tang
1 large hermit crab
I have a fluval canister filter i am not using, if i threw some chemipure in there and ran it for a few days would that help clear the water a bit?
or could i just throw it in the sump and it would work that way, which would be better?
the tank is almost two months old, my water levels are pretty good, i maintain all my equipment very well, and do bi monthly ten gallon water changes. is this slight cloudiness just something im going to have for a while till my tank really settles in?
i dont feed very heavy at all, so i dont know what could be causing it, thank you for any help.
One more thing, the amiracle is rated at 55-100, i am upgrading in about a year to 100 gallons, does anyone use this filter on a 100 gallon and if so how does it do, or am i going to have to get a better wet dry system? i know ill need a better skimmer, anyone selling a nice on the so cal area?
