Thank God I'm married. That's the only thing limiting my spending. I sold some books to pay for my two tanks. Should have enough left to stock them both if all goes well.

I did the gate valve mod but used a ball valve instead. They're much cheaper, but more importantly, easier to find. I know a ball valve isn't appropriate for the task of fine tuning but once you...

Very sturdy. I tried pushing them over with reasonable force & they didn't budge. Still not sure I'd trust that in a glass tank. I might zip tie the bigger pieces.

Not to worry, I don't feel bad about my purchase. But you need to be fair when commenting on issues that arose from the Aquatronica product when it was first released into N.A. users' hands. Sure,...

There isn't a lot of space above the sump for a refugium light. The best I could find is a Coralife 24" Aqualight. It fits perfect, and has two 65w PC bulbs... even a fan.

I got the calcium reactor today. For some reason they shipped the PF601S instead of the PF600. That's no problem, so long as it fits under the stand. I assume it will but I won't know until I get...
