small update:

tank is running like a charm except overflow is a bit noisy but i hope to fix that shortly temp max's out at 80.1 and all levels are awesome. using used water from the 90 worked great. so great that im starting to get hair algea. will nip that in the butt. right away. moved one of my baby clowns into the tank.. lovin it and picked up a purple lta from pats( not going to attempt its true name). i have 4 12mm fans inthe system to keep it cool running on a computer fan controller so i can adjust speed as needed.

other than that nothing else new.
