Tank is cycling!!
Got the water cleared up some to.
A couple small leaks developed AFTER the tank had been running for over 16 hours. Got to get those fixed but we are out of town for the weekend. Tank sitter found them after we left town. No problem tho will get them when I get home.
Have to get a drain pipe on the ATS. its loud and splatters all over the place..
Still super unhappy with how my manifold turned out. But it is all hard plumbed so that is gonna get rebuilt to.
Finally I'm pretty sure I don't have enough flow on the far end of the tank. Gonna put my powerheads down there first. Then maybe move my return outlets if I'm not happy with that.
But overall for my first setup I'm pretty satisfied.
I had to do the same thing with my returns and a Gyre. I was getting a build of of surface scum on the far end of my peninsula tank. I plumbed 3/4" PVC around the top of the tank with penductors:
