Can someone tell me how the heck i keep the water above the min line in the pump section of my well. The water in the tank is filled to the specified line and it was fine before but now it has dropped below the min line and the only way i can raise it is to lift my filter cartridge up to allow more water to flow.

Did you get evaporation or is there a leak somewhere?
Will adding more water to the system help?

Do you mean that the pump sucks the water to fast, like does the tank fill up with water and the sump water level gets lower?

I feel that the pump sucks faster than chamber 1 and 2 can refill it. How can i fix this ? i thought about cutting the wall on chamber 1 to make the opening bigger this way i get more flow thru the filter cartridge.

Try removing the filter cartridge and see if that helps.

I have removed the cartridge and yes it helps but it should work with it in because that is the way its designed. Thanks for the help i think im going to cut the wall in chamber 2 to allow more flow from chamber 1.

yea your cut ida should work, I have a aquapod and it did the same thing, so I removed all the filter media that came w/it, except for mechanical

I have a 29G Biocube and the filter clogs up very fast. I removed mine, widened the opening between chambers 1 & 2, and added a CPR Aquatics SR3 skimmer.

I had a 14 gallon Biocube and I took out the bioballs in the middle section, which helped. I was able to keep the filter in after that. However, it always seemed that I had to fill it quite abit above the line for things to work properly.

I did not use any of the media that came with mine, bioballs, sponge, or ceramics. Went with LR rubble in 1st chamber, magic mud in chamber 2, magic mud in chamber3 with micro alge and 2 power heads in chamber 4. I put the mud in small containers to keep it in place. everything is super stable now going on 2 months. I also have one clown, cleaning shrimp,sand star, 4snails and 2 hermit crabs. Everyone seems to be happy, although one Hermit ate a snail for his shell. Any one have any advice on the next inhabitant of this marine tank?

Cut the tab out between chambers 1 and 2, then discard the stock filter from chamber 1. Put filter floss on top of the drip tray in chamber two. You only need a hand full on the side where the water enters chamber two. I also use purigen and chemipure. You can put the purigen in Chamber 1 and put the chemipure where the sponge is (throw the sponge away). Or, you can buy a media rack to go into chamber 2 to put all the media in (filter floss on top, purigen in middle slot, and chemipure in the bottom slot). This setup works well for me.
