    Coral life return pump failed?

    Should go unsaid. But periodic cleaning of all equipment. especially mechanical. is simply a staple of the hobby and should be part of your normal routine. Anything else is a recipe for disaster. Fact is these little pumps run 24/7 pushing and pulling very harsh stuff. Salt / calcium and all...

    Lighting advice for bow fronts
