Did you add him at the end of the day when the lights were out and all the fish were sleeping so he could acclimate overnight without getting harassed?

If not, and you have a spare pump on your doser (if you have a doser), you could replace some of your cal/alk dosing with nightly kalk dosing. My tank was way down at pH 7.2 in the mornings, outside...

Greg, I like your ideas, but I'm not willing to sacrifice the weir design. I'm just going to silicone some 1/4" acrylic half-round rod to the top of the weir wall. This will raise the water level...

It might not work because only 2 of the 3 wires go into the Molex. If I use the Molex, the third wire is still to be accounted for. If the third wire is indeed for speed control, and not the LEDs,...

Thanks for the help Mike, I'll test with a 9V battery. Good idea! At least then I should be able to figure out if the LEDs are on the third wire or not. The wires don't have color coding - they...

Yeah. I'm pretty sure I will have this problem too. It is 1/2" gap and I think I should have done 5/16". That was my spec though, not Dave's. I think I will add a bit to the top part to make the gap...

That's all how I wanted it. There is a 3/4" hole in the middle back of the eurobrace where the return pipe will slide through.

25% right. I think my dark pics threw you off.

Yes, this is the missing detail! The tank is 3-side Starphire and the eurobrace was supposed to be Starphire too, but it's just plain float. It's a beautiful green one-piece polished eurobrace. :( ...

Well yeah, they're 24" tall! All 24" tanks should have relatively the same thickness. It's the same/close to your display tank, isn't it?
