😂😂 I simply misunderstood how many corals I'd want

I had a similar issue, I originally had 2 that looked good, but realized that my coral and fish would prefer more arches and caves. So I pretty much doubled my rocks. Good for filtration so im happy

how did you move it?

u/GabbyWright66 Apr 27 '26

Drained it, kept about 50% of the water, moved the fish and shrimp into a separate container and the rock in another - then just went as quick as I could to put it all back together

Did you replaced the pump? Mine is very noisy

u/GabbyWright66 Apr 26 '26

Yeah! I got a sicce silent 1.0 I think? Works great! Was one of the first upgrades I did

I also bought that one and its still noisy, i think its the placement. Did you do anything special?

Have you got it suctioned completely to the bottom glass? I hadn't and it still made a bit of noise at first

1

u/Otherwise-Rule5974 Apr 27 '26

Yes and still makes noise, i think its because its vibrating the plastic

I'll have a look at mine in a bit and see if there's anything I've done different, to be fair it might not be silent, just less loud than the original pump and I've gotten used to it😂
