Fill the tank with water, add about two cups of muriatic acid, put in power head and let it sit for 24 hours. Clean as a whistle. Then drain the tank (careful it can eat through your driveway) rinse it will, then pour in a bottle of white distilled vinegar. Rub that throughout the tank, this...

Flow is taken care of by my return pump is a sequence Hammerhead which is rated at 5800 gph that I split into 4 seperate returns to the tank. Inside the tank I have 2 Tunze 6100's and 2 6200's on a controller that varies flow on them. IMO I would say if you are going to keep soft corals you...
