Office side:




The flow in the tank has been causing some other growth pattern issues. Namely, the fact that the vortech's are stuck in those awful corners, there's a really strong uni-directional back draft around the edges of overflow boxes. Also, on this side the outlet from my return pipes seems to hit right at the overflow box then go straight down. It's combining to make that stag horn grow all weird, it even had a branch grow straight down. If anyone has any suggestions for how to remedy this I'm all ears. Are there better return pipe nozzles that aren't so uni-directional? I recently got a WXM module for my Apex, so I've been considering have half my vortech's shut off periodically throughout the day. What does everyone think?






Love this fish. My roommate named him 'Nightrider'

Look at the growth pattern! Grrrrrr.
