After i lost few thousand $$$ CRS, then i realise that a CORRECT setup will save your wallet, due to to CRS are too sensitive to dirty water. Just share with the bro here my setup.
3x1x1.5ft 2 partition custom tank.
Soil 22L ADA 2, 10L ADA 1. A total of 12cm height SOIL.
Before adding the soil, 10kg eheim chip lava rock, a bottle of MOSURA old sea mud power, BT-9.
3 pre-filter fitted wool.
Total of 4 cansiter
eheim 2222, 2228, 2026,
Sunsun 1400L/h
Media biohome plus, eheim substance pro, MR Q cr.
hailea HC-150A (adding my spare chiller GEX GXC-110 soon) to reduce lesser kick in.
2.5L Co2 tank with taiwan brand solenoid.
T5 39w x 4
Undergravel system
1 DIY SUPER bb house.
My system work this way
System 1 2ft UGS to pre-filter to 2026.
System 2 Three sponge suction from each partition to pre-filter - pre-filter(purely just wool)- 2222 - 2228 - sunsun - hc-150a - TOM flowrate checker then merge with system 1 to rainbar back to tank.
Near to the ending part of the tube i use LADY GAGA DIY Co2 inline diffuser mentod, plus a small connection to a air tube(black 15ft tube) to DIY BOX filled with lava chip and CR. then back to the tank(no pump needed, as bb need dark and warm place to grow that why i choose black tube plus 15ft long) diy box with media is to collect more BB.
Will update the photo soon, just correct me if i did wrong.
And thank to alan aka eviltrain & alvinchan, they share with me alot.
Thank for veiwing.

How much is the flowrate of each system?Originally Posted by laosu
silane
System 1 300L/h
System 2 set to 400L/h(sunsun filter only on from 2pm to 6pm due to the weather too hot, once all filter working will give a total 950L/h)
Rainbar is facing the back of the glass to prevent my tank become a washing machine.

Not sure if a filter is good to be on and off, the desired bacteria may not grow and undersirable bacteria may grow instead.

But the filter is in line, all join together.

Boss silanes means bad bb may cultured instead of good bb.
Better keep them on all the way. If u wants, set the timer for your 2nd system chiller can le lor. Canister keep on running.

Wow bro, your setup is really powerful.
abit risky to have canister set on and off? I think no harm setting it on 24/7. I m not even comfortable with 6 hrs of bloody downtime due to block upgrading DAMN it
Bro, cannot imagine your setup. Need to see the pictures.
Okok but alan if my cansiter are in line i need to On all cansiter ar??? I sometime leave 1 or 2 as dummy filter leh.

Master silane, i on & off cause filter 2222 will go to filter 2228 then go in sunsun filter then go to chiller lastly then merge with system 1 (2026) filter lastly return to tank. In this way if i stop any of system 2 filter will oso affect anything. Please Advice as i still new for shrimp. Thank in advance.

I think if its in-line then there's nothing to worry about. Its not like the water in the canister is stagnant. As long as the flow is kept throughout the whole setup, then it should be fine. Its just like running a chiller whereby the water in the reservoir is constantly flowing whether or not it is being kicked in. No worries there. Impressive that you are running all those different filters and merging into 1 output.. However, it seems like alot of input to a bottlenecked output. Might not be a good thing to restrict the flow of your filters too much. Or maybe I just read the whole thing wrong.
bro laosu, quick! post a pic of your set up!
