When I ran my tank open I lost way too much water throughout the day that the return pump would start sucking air. About a gallon a day. After putting glass tops on I lose about 2 litres tops.

Moon lights?

I had moon lights but got rid of them when I sold my last fixture.

Running LEDs now. Do fish/coral really benefit from moonlights?

I'll be in town on Thursday/Friday next week.

I need the above two fish plus an insulated box to take them back in. Let me know ASAP. Or if you know a local LFS who would have them.
