Ya, I used to have a clown trigger in my 131g "FOWLR" that was plumbed into the 150g mixed reef. I shut the "FOWLR" down a few months ago though. Just have the 150g mixed reef now with no triggers I do miss tiggers..

He behaved just like any other psychotic trigger

Possibly in the future when my kids are much older and I have a bit more time on my hands I would like to set up another dedicated FOWLR for fish like the triggers, etc.

I don't have the Mg one (actually don't even know if they have those yet). I do love the alk and calc checkers tho.

Sexy! I got the same holder to my probes, at first I thought the magnet would interfere with the readings but I haven't had any problems yet. Nice buy kien.

Ya, it's kinda funny because when I started this build 3 years ago had planned from the get-go to get something like these holders. I put it on my to-do list, but in a pinch I figured a piece of styrofoam would do the trick. It did do the trick except for some annoyances like, in order to keep them from banging into each other the piece of styrofoam had to be pretty big. Also, whenever the sump water went up (due to return pump off), the whole set of probes would rise also. This wasn't a problem until the sump water went back down but left the probes dangling in the air snagged onto the lip of the sump

Anyway, fast forward 3 years and I can finally cross that off of my to-do list. yay!

I have to admit, you are right, they are pretty sexy probe holders! I have not noticed any interference due to the magnets either.
