hey guys the site is OUTSTANDING.
i have a 270 gal reef tank that has been ur and running now for over 6 months now. i have a 75 gal sump with a pump that has an unknown GPH. my guess is somewhere between 600-1000 GPH. do i need to get some circulation pumps in the tank because i have been losing corals lately and am thinking that it is due to poor circulation on floor.
i also only have live rock doing the wirk of filtering. my sump is empty. i know i need a protein skimmer but dony know what to look at or where? my fish are doing great but corals are not. my lighting is about 12 hours a day with 2x400w 10K bulbs. i dont care for the color of the lights and dont know what is better 14K or 20K? any help would be appericiated!!!! thanks Jake
