imisky's 30g custom tank

with this mod i had to dremel away the original plastic housing until the 1.5" coupling could fit, after that i used ABS/PVC cement to bond the 2 plastics together then painted with krylon paint as we cant find black ABS/PVC glue in canada.

i installed the front propeller housing today into my tunze 6055 and wow..the flow is incredible its wide and strong, i was barely getting any flow to the other side of my tank and now i am getting plenty. it makes the koralia 4 look like a joke with its wide flow.

so heres the photo of the tunze 6055 with the new front propeller housing, and i also took a photo of my tank to show the amount of flow im getting now with the tunzes or tried to show it...from a top view.

my lights turned off before i could get a photo with only 6055 on i'll get that tomorrow. meanwhile any comments?

thanks guys for the comments!
i guess the only thing left to do now is to get those SPS to grow.

heres a question for all of you

if you were in my shoes would u switch the 14k phoenix to 10k bulb with high par just for growth? then later on switch to 20k for color then back to the phoenix? or just wait it out and let them go at there own pace.
