You now have me worried about the vortechs, as I just bought one. Was yours a gen 1 or gen 2.
it was a gen1, like the first batch that were produced, it came in a brown cardboard box with stickers on the side.

i do have a mp40w as well, both are great pumps.

Do you really replace your bulbs every three months? - did I read that correctly?

Tank looks awesome BTW
Thanks shrimpchips

not sure about the issues they have, as there have a few with the gen1, this was the first that i have encountered.

and YES, i do change out the t5;s every 2.5-3 months.
