Hi guys! Me again!
Right, I have finally set up my V2 400 skimmer. The problem is that the tank is located in my lounge and the noise from the skimmer is doing my head in!
Would it be OK to put a timer on the skimmer so that it runs from 00.00 to 16.00 and then is off from 16.00 to 00.00?
This is the only way around it.
My other question is that if I am running a FOWLR setup would it be just as benificial if I took the skimmer back and had a load of LR instead. Then fill my external canister with LR rubble & phosphate remover too. I'm only going to be keeping 2 clowns, a few snails and crabs.
Having the skimmer running like a boiling kettle is really taking the shine off the whole setup.
