3rd world country advantage. Everything is kind of cheap where I live because I live close to China. Cheap goods are flooded here. My LED lm301h 240w with meanwell driver is like 100$. The entire system above is like 75$. Screw it, it's not like the cop in my country is crawling here. Greeting...

Maybe, does not really matter and I doubt it can. How much this thing can remove if I never really dump the content out. The chamber/filter can be removed too. So it basically a venturi pump with a chamber. Let me know if you guys want to see it in action.

This is my setup, which I bought from ali. 7gallons bucket (should have used 3 inch pipe instead of 2). " Generally you just want the pump to aerate the water and let it circulate naturally through out the reservoir. The bubbles you see that is coming out at the top most chamber is doing a...

Yes, I do tend to overthinking stuff like this because it is fun for me. It might be overkill but I rather am safe than sorry. 1. I got a very good deal on the skimmer (15$) 2. I don't use a chiller (27C on res currently) 3. My waterfalls are rather pathetic because I don't let them fall too...

Just my 2 cents, I'm in a tropical region too, except 38 C in the summer. Oxygen and bacteria are actually one thing, which is oxygen. With beneficial bacterial/fungis and enough oxygen, you should not have root rots. So 31C is fine as long as you have enough oxygen (airstones might be enough...

I have to create an account just to reply to this. Thank you for the idea, I just bought a protein skimmer for aeration in my res to ditch my airstones/air pumps in each bucket. Will report back the result (I'm running rdwc). I'm fully convinced I wasted money on my air pumps. I tried to look...
