It really will. If the chip is on the bottom, I'd be a little more cautious. If it's on the top it's not a big deal at all since there's no...
I'm going away for 10 days and I'm totally freaked out something bad is going to happen while away. I have my roommate "taking care" of everything...
Nothing, they sat there and slowly deteriorated, or I scraped them off. I read they won't survive so I might as well just get rid of the eggs. Sad,...
Make sure those chips aren't showing a cracking line. Glass will slowly crack (much like a windshield) if there is a sign. Dump a bunch of silicone...
"Since each existing seam is completely free of silicone except for the tiny 1/2 mm gap that holds the glass together would a new strip of silicone...
The best advise I can give you for the long run is come here before you buy anything big. Seriously, I spent so much money on useless "stuff" and...
You can always reseal a tank with sillicone, the problem is you have to use a massive amount which is displeasing to the eye. Take all the panes...

Good suggestions. I might try these out :)
I am on my way to upgrade my magfloat. I am getting some harder algae that isn't the easiest to clean and was wondering how the mag-flip is?...
Nice looking sump. It won't look so nice in about 6 months :P
It could reduce a little bit. You can try and put some socks on the overflow plumbing or squeeze some foam between the baffles if you have those. I...
I usually use the return pump to adjust the overflow rate. If the pump runs a higher rate, so does the overflow. I had a noise problem on mine even...
Get some air tubing and put that in the middle of the hole with the other end hanging near the ground. The noise will travel through that...
So I have been getting some GHA popping in in numerous spots and slowly trying to kill it away. I moved a flat rock around and saw in about two days...
That's sad. What's even worse is reading the terrible comments on that site. For your own sake, don't bother!
