Can someone review the recirculation mod for the RS180?
or recomend a substitute pump for the Gen-X 4100? I've partially enclosed the back of the stand which helped a bit with sound bouncing back from the wall, and I've stuffed rubber "anti-fatigue" matting around the pump, which helped a bit more. WAF (Wife Acceptance Factor) is now 4.0 of 10 |

If you wanna get that WAF up to 10, you're gonna have to break down and get the eheim. Had the "F"AF going on with my finace. She'd always complain when we had guests over..... I didn't think it was bad, but she did i guess.....
As for the RC mod, hopefully someone will post their pics.... it doesn't look that complicated though.... Jim

if you have the 6-2 then this mod should help you as well i think you have the sedra 5000 as well. .. you will only need to buy 2 uniseals then. 1 1/4" whole saw. measure three times and cut once. if you connect the venturi like i did to the skimmer then you can measure where the outlet of the pump fits on the skimmer you cant stick you hand down the middle of your skimmer unless you use your kids hands to put any fitting inside the skimmer just use the straight pipe and you should be fine thats what h&s does anyways

Mark, I looked at your mod and it looks do-able. What size are the uniseals? The pump is a new sedra 5000, the old one bit the dust. Thanks for the advice! My hope is for a quiet recirc skimmer.

3/4 inch for uniseals
i went to the sprinkler section at lowes and found screw in black nipples for pumping water in for like 58cents if you do the mod the way i did as far as the volute you can use the existing hole in your skimmer. it puts the pump a little higher then the way euro does thier rc135 ... but if you look at h&s skimmers thier pumps are mounted a little higher than deltec . i never had any problems. if you want to use elbows inside the skimmer its probably not going to happen unless you have smart little children . my 8 year old daughter was able to reach the fitting ... thats the only draw back to euro reef verses asm with asm you can tak the neck off

I just reveived my 135. I am having a problem connecting the pump to the body. I have the outlet elbow. I assume the pump to body coupling is the black thing. I have no idea how to install it. called UR. nobody home

Has anyone ever tried to mod either an eheim 1250 or similar sized aquabee pump for use on an RS80. I'm tied of the noise and vibration produced by my sedra 3500.

What would happen if I slapped this pump on (Aquabee 2000)?

I have a CS8-2 and have been trying to figure out the same thing on where to dial it in
There is so many darn bubbles in that chamber and I can't tell where everything is in that neck, LOL |

i am not thier tech but have run 4 different euro reefs. if you have the gate valve its even easier.
i think the best way is to start with the gate valve open or the stand pipe pushed all the way down. once the inside has slimed up real good can take up to a week or so . i run mine about 1/2" to 1" above the bottom of the skimmer cup. but if its not broke in then your going to over flow the cup real easy. usually about 1 1/2" from where it overflows into the cup
