Hi everyone. Got some great advice on taking setting up a qt for some fish that got ich and I ended up purchasing a UV.
Now for plumbing. I currently have it plumbed off my manifold from the return and going into my skimmer section which is the section right before the return pump. From reading only this is not ideal sine all I am doing is recycling the same water.
From reading ideally I would want to get water from my display into the uv input then back to the display as a closed loop. Since that’s where most stuff like ich would live because of the sand. Issue with this I don’t want a ugly pvc pipe in the main display.
Other option I’m thinking is buying a pump that goes from my skimmer section to the return pump. Since the water is coming from the display to the skimmer section then back to the return this should accomplish the same thing no? Any advice would be appreciated
