I dont know what to do with the glass on the back. Should I paint it or just leave it clear? I eventually want to have just vortechs so there wont be as many cords running down the back. Its nice to be able to go back and see stuff i want to suck up during a water change.

I got my marine betta to eat some mysis shrimp and chopped mussel today. Hopefully pretty soon I wont have to spot feed him way inside my rocks. Everytime i stick the tongs in to try and feed the marine betta my trigger eats half the food before I get it in the rocks.

Well I have flooded my basement twice in the last week. The one last night was pretty bad though. I left my 200 gpd rodi on last night and a quarter of my basement is wet. So right now I am trying to soak the water out of the rug and I have big fans set up to help it evaporate. I was pretty lucky though the water was just at the powerbars and stuff behind my tank when I noticed it was still on.

Welcome to the flood club ! Probably won't be your last. Seriously though I hope it all cleans up Ok. I had one myself today with my 33g set-up, never have had a water disaster with this set up, so you just never know.
