[quote=kwirky;316360]thanks

. Yeah I've found when the detritus is kept under control lots of problems are solved. I kept all 4 sides open too so that I can get all the way around with a magnet cleaner, even the back. Tomorrow I'm going to see how it goes siphoning detritus from the bottom into a filter sock. I think it'll work well and will allow me to do it without changing any water. Just don't know how to hang the sock on the bucket
Yup thats one heck of a cube, thats exactly what I did to mine, i keep all four sides for the magnet to go at and once a week get into the corners, that way its rare to have tougher algae growing, however I do have a bit of trouble cleaning the bottom on my tank, I think i need a razor blade for that one

. But wow that is bright, plus white styrofoam and white background. I like the background, white background is quite original, most often people go black or just let algae cover their back glass. If I could turn back time I would spray my back white as well haha.
