You can adjust the voltage output to the pump. While unplugged, remove the 4 phillips screws on the back. Inside there is a micro pot. Twist the knob all the way counter-clockwise to drop the output to it's lowest setting. This will reduce the water output per cycle to 'around' a cup give or take.

You'll find it will also reduce pump noise.

Thats kind of annoying it works that way. Good to know I can adjust the voltage.

Starting to see diatoms on the rocks now. My one sps frag has gone totally white. I don't think there will be any saving it but my toadstool had polyps out for the first time since the move so that's positive.

Did another big round of water tests

All fish are eating and doing well. Lost a hermit crab though. Once the cycle is fully complete I am going to have to restock my cuc.

Congrats. I just finished cycling my first reef tank which is a IM lagoon 25 as well.
