damn... well water is going in tonight so ill be able to test it out. Worse comes to worse Ill move the Mag18 to my 150gal setup which will happen in about a weeks time and look at buying a smaller pump. The tank is in the basement so hopefully it wont get too hot. Im currently trying to setup 3 display tanks at once so I have a little work ahead of me, haha..

thx for the advice thou.
