What's T6? There's T8 and T12 but never heard of a T6. There's also no option for halide+t5+led. Seems like lots of options for other.

TripleT, I see you live in Calgary, why do you have acidic water? Calgary water is very hard with a pH of of over 8. At any rate as stated once mixed with salt you'll have everything you need in the...

A few comments on your seams

1. Silicone shrinks when it dries, so cracks and bubbles typically form with thick glass tanks due to the extra silicone in the seams. Some silicone brands shrink less...

I'm not sure the new drain location is an issue unless I'm missing something. Seems to me a floor drain right under the tank is pretty good location. Easy enough to add elevate the sump/equipment to...

It's not the same, it requires an extra click which sometimes isn't worth the extra effort.
