Water Flow in Marine Systems. One of the hardest things to figure out in a marine system is whether you have too much, or too little flow. Depending on the corals you have, your rockwork, and tank size, your flow requirements may be very different to that of others...so how do you control this important aspect? The month Stephanie Kohl will present Water Flow in the Reef Aquarium. In this presentation she will review the objectives of water flow and the different types of water flow that can meet those needs. Additionally, she will cover some of the various pumps and devices available, comparing power consumption, flow rates, and cost. Finally, she will discuss tools such as controllers, closed loop systems, current changing devices, and surge devices that can be utilized to meet your tank's needs. As usual, we will have LFS gift certificates for our free member door prize. This month we will also hold a cash raffle to help fund the up-front costs of The CRASE. Raffle tickets will be $2.00 and you can enter to win one of two Koralia 4 powerheads. This meeting will be held at UCO - doors open at 7.30. CRASE tickets will be available. Paul.
