It is easy to poke fun at ASM, because they really are built poorly....but this G6 works very well and I would continue to recommend it as high value for the buck. I don't think the boil-overs are...

It is pretty much just hanging in there. I haven't tested it by filling the skimmer cup yet, but I'm pretty sure it will work. The float is standard Aquatronica equipment. The AQT comes with a...

My skimmer filled up again last night. For some reason, every now and then the skimmer goes nuts and fills the collection cup. Once the cup is full, the skimmer burps and spits, spattering...

Let us know if the ick returns to your Achillies or not. In my tank, without UV, it comes and goes...never goes completely away. If you can eliminate it completely, that's a real testimony for UV.

My achillies tang went through about the same sequence of attack/recovery as his...but I don't have a UV sterilizer. Obviously, his running of UV didn't prevent the ick attack in the first place. ...

That's good. Now...just don't give up on it like I did. As soon as you see one again, siphon and treat again. I believe that if you repeat that a few times, you'll win. I doubt you will get them...

I ran a 2gallon tank using 2 of those bulbs and can attest that you will grow coraline algae like mad. I didn't attempt to keep any coral, as I was only running it as a mantis tank.

You said that you were going to use a powerful pump...so I'm envisioning that you are flowing thousands of gph through the sump- through the OM 8way - through the overflows - back to the sump.

If your siphon break works properly, it should stop the siphon before the tank drains down to the level of the return pipes. Can your sump handle the water if they actually do drain down? I...

My Achillies has never truly kicked it completely. Like yours, it went through a bad patch shortly after entering the tank. Now, it has settled into an ongoing minor thing.

It does look like those two triggers get along. I haven't seen my male blue throat ever behave nicely to the female.

Get some food into that male...he's thin.

Nice....it will be fun to watch Moe (my Naso) get spikes like that. Even in the past month, I've noticed his spikes are getting larger. Hope he goes easy on the walls of my acrylic tank!
