$150 Mike. Total volume is about 28g. Float switch and 12v pump was another $79. Decided to use it instead of my new Osmolator, so going to likely sell it.

My Tank is finally doing half decent again, after the sps fiasco. Still grows film algae easily but not like it was. Picked up the few corals I had left from a friend and some frags from his tank, plus bought some nice frags from Mike.

All doing well so far. Received some dandy snails from Kevin @ Red Coral. Making short work of any film algae and as a matter of fact I leave it on the front glass for them so they wont stave. Look like a bunch of compact cars in my tank.

Not to mention the beautiful acro frag, he sent me. Thanks very much Kevin. Nice order, well packaged.

Going to take some pics soon, when I have 5 min.

Alright! Glad to hear things are turning around for you Doug. Nice looking sump.

Great news Doug. What type of snails are they?

I only have 2 large astrea (which I've read are incorectly identified a lot in the hobby so may not be astrea) and while they eat all day they don't make much of a dent on my glass. I could use a few more snails...

Thanks Lance.

I believe they are Mexican turbo,s Brett. I told Kevin any type would do, as I needed to get something on that film algae. These are the largest I have ever had. Algae cleaning bull dozers.
