How high the water should be on a 30 gallon tant

It should be above the power head full the water as far as you can and put the power head at least 4 inches under the the water.

With a 30 gallon, max "low" water level would be about 4-6 inches below the top rim before the pump starts sucking air and loses siphon. Keep in mind this will also make pump susceptible to losing siphon much faster as water evaporates. I'd recommend an internal power filter for any tank you want to keep water level lower than an inch or two from top rim.

I own a 20 gallon long and a 30 gallon high - fits both - the tanks are 12 by 30 outside demission's

5.5 seems very high. I'd check the sensor. Also try a hydrometer. It will indicate how pure the water is.

The cold water is about 30 degrees in the front and the hot about 30 degrees in the back. I just measured it it's 2.5 inch you need to calculate.

I have a 27 foot trailer. I used a little over 4 gallons. Just make sure that you clean the roof before you put it on.

We use a 55 gallon but it hangs over the sides. For a better fit I would guess a 30 gallon size would better fit

It will do fine for your 30 gallon now. But this skimmer is only rated for 65 gallons max, and probably not even that. Manufacturers almost always overrate their skimmers.

The Aqueon is been unreliable for temp, I bought a Eheim heater and its holding temp well, for a tank your size the 300w should do the trick, rated for up to 250g

I have a 30 gallon aquarium and I put mine right on top of the screen cover that goes on top of the tank it works fine!

It should be fine for a 30g tank. You know the length of it so you can imagine how it would fit in your particular tank. One thing to remember since it isn't a stone the air comes out of puncture holes in a rubber tube. These are easily clogged but also clean easily with a little rubbing. You'll notice this if the air is only coming out of a few holes. Hope this helps.

I am running mine on a 120 Gal. tank which is also fully planted with no problem. 2 350's on a 75 Gal. would be an overkill in my opinion.

The water level for my bird bath is about 2 inches too, it works well. You may need to add water daily to ensure the pump is covered.

I used it in my 45 gal hex tank and it worked great. I don't see why it wouldn't be ok in your 30. Proceed w/ caution and just keep a eye on your water's chemical levels by testing your water. Hope this helps.

The 8' x 30" pool is 8 feet at the base and 30" to the top. Water level is approximately 80% of the depth. The top rim, due to the shape is about 6.5 feet across.

the lowest setting is fine for my 15 gallon tall. I have 5 galaxy barbs, two albino cories cats, two amino shrimps, an otto catfish and a shit load of snails(Note: a bunch of moss cover my intake tube from time to time). But it depends on the fish you plan to get too. do your fish come from a place with fast moving water or slow? Since you already have a spare C4 and a tank just try it out. worse case you return the fish back.

Check the water level. It's very important that the level is at the top or it will do what your describing!

I use on a 30 gallon taller tank and it is very bright, really lights up the tank very nice:)
