I think what you have would work, I don't know if it is optimal. For example, with the herbie I don't think you will need a bubble trap off the drain since you shouldn't be getting bubbles there....

I am running a bubble magus curve 7 on my 70g. I could have gone with the curve 5, but I had the room so I thought what the heck. :). I have no complaints. Runs fairly quiet, just slightly louder...

Thank you so much for documenting this! I look forward to this far more than the disappointing new fall tv shows. :)

What are your plans for your ever growing hoard of clownfish?

It's both really neat and horrifyingly disgusting. Probably the former in anyone else's tank, and the latter in any of mine. :)

Little kid fun with reefing

Hi all,

Very interesting! I had never heard of a de-nitrifying coil so had to look it up. I'll keep up on your progress.

I think if you want a painting with a reef theme that would be cool. It can be helpful to provide photos as reference material/inspiration. Just don't ask the artist to somehow do a painted replica...

Best wishes for the whole family! Yay you for not passing out during the delivery. That's a hell of a thing to watch... No clue how women do it once, let alone allow it to happen again. :)
