Adding Flow
Would taking the return noozle off my wet/dry filter and adding a piece of pvc pipe drilled with hole that will span the entire length of my tank help to add more water movement.

I kinda doubt that it would, but you may want to provide a little more information as to what you are trying to accomplish and a little more detail to what you already have. When you say wet/dry filter with skimmer, I'm not sure exactly what you mean. Do you have a return pump coming from a sump. I looked at your photos and could not tell whether your last photo was showing a overflow box or exactly what it was. That said, I gotta tell you I'm blind in one eye and can't see out of the other so maybe someone else can jump in here.

Hi extrememc,
![]() Changing how the water is returned isn't going to change the amount of flow in your system. If I were in your shoes, I would add a Tunze Stream to the tank for additional flow, and perhaps even remove the small powerheads to remove clutter. ![]() |
