It has been a few years now...no problems...but I'm not sure I would notice if he snacked on some SPS. He is well fed.

Thanks. The tank isn't really a cube... 6' x 4'. If I could do it again though, I would go 6' x 6'. It has to be acrylic or the centre of the tank would be unreachable.

I have no idea how many cukes are in my system, but I would guess it is more than a dozen. About 4 of those would be tiger tails, the rest are all donkey dungs. I've had them for almost five years...

You need to remove the rock it lives in. I wouldn't be too worried about it. Consider it a beneficial scavenger.

OK, but there are hundreds of types and sizes. I've kept these in my tanks for many years without any fish eating. My largest was probably 3 feet long (never actually saw all of him), but even then...

I just looked at the photos again. Can you replace the overflow grid with a piece of slotted acrylic? Make the piece removable so you can clean it. That egg grade has openings that are too large...

Each of my CL Dart pumps pull through a single 2" intake. Suction is not an issue. As said, the key is to have a large surface area strainer.

IME, things do get more difficult at the 2 year mark. Accumulation of things, and failure of things. Tearing all the rock down and replacing it counts as starting over!

Beyond 300 gallons, I would go with acrylic. (I did...and I would again). Glass gets too thick and the tank simply becomes too heavy.
