You can move the light fixtures up to view the algae screen on both sides 3: Putting on the return pipes, first adjust height for 1” return pipe by cutting to the depth of 1/2” to 1” down in the water in the sump, to reduce water noise level. Putting the 1” return and the 3/4” emergency overflow pipes on, you can use PVC cement to glue them on or use MOLYKOTE to seal and press them on. Be sure to twist lightly back and forth when gluing or using molykote. With molykote you can remove the return pipes if needed for cleaning. 4: Hooking up a pump to the ACS. You have a union fitting on the spray bar screen and a 1/2” barb fitting for 1/2” tubing. Remove the union when putting the tubing on the barbed fitting then put the union back together. Pump size or flow over screen is about 200gph. You can use your return sump pump by tee and valve to control the flow or with the ACS-SK the pump is supplied with two foot of 1/2’silicone tubing. It depends on how available nutrients, nitrates and phosphates is in your tank on how fast algae will grow, if it’s taking to much out, you can adjust the lighting cycle and/or use the touch control for the lighting to increase or lower the brightness level. Note: When water is flowing out the 3/4” emergency pipe you may have algae buildup in the main 1” drain pipe and needs to be clean out.

Natures Way. Algae Clean Scrubber uses algae as a natural filter to move excess nutrients (Nitrate, Phosphate and other pollutants) to grow algae in a controlled unit to be easily removed to clean or harvest most of the algae and not in your display tank.

Also if the algae is growing to fast and pulling to much nutrients out, you can use the dimmer control to dim the lights down for less algae growth. 2.
