ah, unfortunately I probably wont have the times these days to do much DIY things. Theres also another problem with a bigger cup for the MCE500/600 skimmers. You essentially will lose the ability to adjust the height of the cup if you go out of the allotted space.

Utilizing the last bit of the long weekend of finish up something Ive been wanting to do for a LONG time. Simply put wire management. I've been putting it off from day 1 of the tank build and should have done it from the get go... So 2 hours of work, and a little bit of cleaning up, its finally done.

I was talking to a few people locally and they had thought I got out of the hobby since I didn't post anything for a long time. So I thought why not do an update here to let everyone know that I'm still around, just posting less as I've got less time to spend around my tank as well. But that's not to say its doing bad.

I've just recently moved my tank to a more open location in the house, gets more natural sunlight as well which I personally think benefits the tank a bit. The lights has been changed over to the radion Gen2 and so far everything is doing good.
