I love the FTS!
ANd that Xingu is a beast!
What is your wc schedule and how much k1 do you have in that pool filter?
And......lets see the plumbing for the pool filter in/outta the tank please.
We are filtration nerds as well ;)

Oh...I love that tile as well.
Is it silicone in place to keep debris from getting under it?

I do 2 water changes per week. I'm a fanatic when it comes to my water being crisp and fresh. The pool filter almost stuffed to the rim with k1 (about 50 liters of it) .
The tile is one of the best decisions I've made with this tank. It is not siliconed together, it's not necessary. I just vacuum any debris at the bottom of the tank which also sucks up anything that falls between the cracks.
Here's a few more detailed pictures of the filtration. There's about 40lbs of ceramic rings in my 40g breeder sump.
