So that will put the movement inside the tank at somewhere near 6000 gph if I run the tunzes "full blast". Im not sure how some of the "more sensitive to flow" things in the tank will fare. I really hope I dont end up needing to re-home anything.
There's no doubt you have been talking to Laurier!

I was actually going to order them before x-mas but my extended "vacation" put an end to that idea. Kevin said he needed to do a tunze order so....Talking to Laurier today just made me feel alot better about my decision. Im getting the osmolator top-off unit too

My bi-color angel has struck again. This time a lemon/lime acan frag I just brought home. Same thing as with the blasto, he chewed almost all the flesh off. Since he ate the blasto, he hasnt touched the bit he left and it actually is looking like it may recover. Its like he knows that if he eats it all it wont grow back. *formulating strategy*
