ATI Sunpower T5 fixture does any job. If you aren't going for a Sol, Illumina or Radion I wouldnt gamble. Not worth it. I too have a Chinese fixture and I am not too impressed.

If there is biological reactions inside that box that are transforming carbon dioxide back to oxygen with high efficiency you could be stuck in there for an extended period of time.

You should consider using a buddle magus skimmer. More bang for the buck.

Also, ever since installing a beananimal overflow I will promote it whenever I can. It is quiet and extremely safe.

I don't understand why you would have an algae problem in a frag tank. Is it a closed system? Are there fish? Do you still use RODI water?

EDIT: BTW, any mille frags for sale? :) :) :)

LOL

Yeah, clear would defeat the purpose of what eggcrate is meant to do.
