    Protein Skimmer Over flowing

    coralline algee?

    Shells or crushed coral it could still be a problem down the road. Uneaten food and fish waste will get trapped. These replies to posts are not meant to offend just help.

    Looks like it to me. You have a lot of crushed coral in the tank could be problem for Nitrates.

    Drain flow control

    The T works well I installed one for my set up and works great for flow control.
