Wow! Maybe I am just "lucky". I don't need any fans blowing across my water, maybe that helps reduce evaporation.

I have heard of it too, but xenia and macro algae work as good or better I would think, why risk Aiptasia.

Small dogs can go at people's feet in cages.

At least they can with lots of companies, I don't fly westjet too often.

Nobody has asked yet, how many gallons per hour are you putting through this overflow? How big is the bulkhead?

I would argue with them that they are pets, and people can bring dogs that bark, pee, and crap on the plane, you should be able to bring fishies.

Don't they have magnetic holders?

The size isn't a HUGE deal, because I can hide it behind rockwork that is shaped into a circle through which the powerhead will just poke out.

Is the Seio 2600...

I would think a simpler system, and smaller ones, are more suseptible to problems, so it is more important to use filtered water.

For the cost of distilled water from the grocery store, why not?

I agree, until you can save up for an RO/DI unit, buy distilled from the grocery store. Why risk it when for your volume of water it is cheap to use non-tap water.

To increase the water level inside the overflow, I think you need to make the hole smaller.

Simple test, plug the hole with your finger and see what happens, the water leve should rise.

For cheaper than 2x6100s, I could get the wavebox, and I have seen the flow from these, very impressive.

Has anyone compared 2x6100s on a controller vs. a wavebox?

Great info, exactly what I was looking for, thanks.

Would a single 6100 do the trick, or would I need two of those?

Do you use a controller on your 6100s?

That is where I found out about the 1500 and 2600gph Seio's, I had only heard of the 3 smaller models before that.

Maybe they can make it a 4th of July sale. :)

I would love too!

But for just testing, the cost of the Seio's is much more reasonable, the 2600gph model can be had for $70-80 US plus shipping etc. will be $100 or so.
