It that's the case, you shoulda shot the pic straight down with the lid off, as evolved mentioned.
Your photo doesn't show what we need to see. You should post the card next to the test vial with a white background like this: [IMG]
I'd be really concerned with vibration if the pump is mounted on the cabinet wall. I've had pump vibration affect fish negatively in the past. If...
That's actually a Cirratulid polychaete, AKA "hair worm". These critters are different than Terebellids (spaghetti worms) in that in the hair...
Welcome!
Fortunately, being a horn player, I can clear the water from most hoses and equipment by blowing it out...Renee is really good at doing that "jiggle,...
When you say "limerock", do you mean terrestrial limestone or aragonite base rock? Some limestone such as "TX Holey Rock" is a lot more dense than...
If you can get it tuned at the standpipe, make sure your overflow doesn't leak. I just helped a friend who couldn't figure out why his standpipes...

We use the same LG pump as the main on our 48" 100 gal, with an Iwaki MD-40 as the closed-loop. My only complaint with the 4MDQX-SC is that it's...
Geesh...the tang most likely to "go postal"... Nice job on the 'scaping...it's gonna look nice when it "weathers" a bit and gets some coralline...
A 20 gal is a tad tight for a fuzzy, actually. As for jumping, be aware that all fish can jump, and fuzzies are particularly adept at it...those big...
Here's a primer on the different types of QT's, their pros and cons: Quarantine! It's a Life Sentence, not a Death Sentence.
You kinda need to treat them like sea stars when trying to remove them from the tank panels. Usually a persistent, gentle wiggle can loosen them....
