    You will almost always get some film algae on the glass. It is just a part of life. The skimmer you have should be helping limit it to some degree. Did you see the group buy announcement with instructions?

    Overflow noise

    Well flushing comes from having a loop/dip whatever you want to call it in the drain pipe. Straighten/shorten the pipe and you will get rid of the flushing. I say that without seeing your sump. OH yeah and I speak from experience as I have gotten rid of the flush and lowered the overall noise...

    My Oceanic Tech 120

    Re: My Oceanic Tech 120 and a request for input. Would have been fine with me so long as the Steelers still won ;)! As far as new fish I am done for a while. First my pseudocromis is just not very nice to newcomers. And second while I have a QT tank setup I don't feel like the hassle at the...

    Jonathan...FYI we flamed out another thread with this discussion. Some do and some get good service at Trop. Best to just let it drop.

    30 Gallon Adventure: R

    Well Hawk your firefish is the biggest guy in the tank. Though with the big tank my bicolor pseudo has calmed down I wouldn't exactly say he is Gandi ;). I cannot get rid of him though because he is the one fish that has lived though all the mistakes I made. I have the same feeling about Trop...

    Jimroth's Big Ol' Tank

    Wow and you made sound so casual too. 8) ChannelLocks were made in my hometown ... so made in US even. Nice to have a good backup, really good idea to get it refurbished.

    Good job glad you figured it out. Your fish and corals will appreciate the more gradual lighting and continuity.

    They do hide as they are pretty skittish.....look around your tank. I really love the fish but one mistake allowed per fish IMHO. I really like our open tank so no jumpers for me.

    Cool, I know they can be difficult to keep, I would someday like to try my hand at one.

    Mine went carpet surfing ... pretty crispy by the time I found him. All fish can jump those do tend to jump more ... a risk. If you can keep him calm then should be OK but you have a few semi agressive fish so my suggestion is to cover it up if you can.

    would this work?

    If your wife doesn't kill you the fumes might...I wouldn't bake it.

    Overflow Bubbling uncontrollably

    I thought I had problems with bubbles. Mine was nothing like that. How is it going today? I would assume you shut off your pump and checked everything right? Hope you figure it out let us know.

    Overflow Bubbling uncontrollably

    Try to close the hole in the top of the durso....I have always had a bit of trouble with air in my lines too. You don't have any loops so that shouldn't be a problem. Strange that it got worse unless you released a lot of organic matter that is foaming like in the ocean?

    Powerheads??

    I am a big fan of the Koralia powerheads. Reasonable price, high dispersed flow, low power usage, magnetic mounts and for me they have always been quiet and dependable. I have one K2 in my QT and 2 K4 in my 120. Also have the returns and two MJ900 on wavemaker in DT.

    Your light should be pretty good...the corals that need more light can go up higher as you said. I don't exactly understand what you mean about your light cycle. Your lights don't go off for two hour right...do you mean the different type of bulbs? Leathers are nice...Candi is selling very nice...
