    Definitely needs some improvement but thanks! I like the sump but it is a bit loud - although I do like the sounds of water :) Well, I'm happy to report that I saw my pistol today so that's everybody - they all made the conversion yay!

    Looking really good! Quieting a system down is actually pretty easy, getting it set up the right way is the hard part! You will love your sump. Guarantee it. :)

    norg, any advice for quieting it down? It seems that most of the noise is coming from the overflow box.....

    Tank looks so much bigger than the last one, even though the gallons aren't that far off. You must be loving the extra space!
