Thread: Circulation for LR Storage

  1. #1

    Default Circulation for LR Storage

    So I'm about to get some LR, and I want to store it for a few weeks before I put it into my tank. I've just picked up a Pan World 30PX from NaCl_H2O and was wondering if it'd be a majorly bad idea to use for circulation in a Brute or some such with the LR for the time being? I was thinking to mount it on something above the container and plumb an inlet and outlet directly up to the pump. Comments? Outside of this, and a heater, anything else I should keep in mind?

    If you've not got another pump laying around, no harm in plumbing the brute as you state... but if you've got a powerhead or two laying around, I'd just go with that. You can just toss them into the Brute, loose, and let them push water around freely. Other than a pump, heater, and occasional water change, everything should be just fine

    Unfortunately that'd mean going to actually *buy* one of those, however I've managed to (with the assistance of txmike) plumb the pump into the brute, and I think that'd be fine for a few days thanks for the help!!
