I am not sure how much stress I will be putting on the little wee pump with the open top/open sump/hot t5's combo but so far it works well.
Only complaint I have heard from anyone using it is that it has to be initialized above water level, so if you have a power outage and your sump level rises and evens out you will know as it will be beeping constantly.

That is about the only photo I have of it, has been shy since the tank move.
Haven't had any problems with the betta, if anything its a very passive fish in my tank.

Small update. Pretty much everything in the tank is going well, have to reattach the mount for the sump light as I forgot to scuff up the glass where it mounted and it took a dive into the water. Amazingly it was still on and working fine in the morning and continues to be right now.

1 probable casualty to report though. Have no clue where there cleaner wrasse has gone, no corpse in the water, overflow or sump.
Getting some hair algae popping up now, never had an issue in the 90G with LEDS, thinking it could be the higher white light from the 10K T5's.
Have set up a simple water change schedule so far of 5G every 2 days like clockwork until I figure out how I want to set up a bigger change over in dining room area its in.

Snapped a few more pictures, keep trying to get a decent picture of the Betta Grouper with my real camera but only seems to be out when I have my phone handy.




This is the same big hammer that looks a lot more pink in some of my first pictures, strange colour changes.
