    Sorry to hear about the CB. Maybe you can get your LFS to look out for that small one you're talking about... You never know.

    And kudos for your friend helping you with the sump. Doesn't matter who did it, so long as it's there and functioning properly! I mean Neil Armstrong didn't physically help build or design, to the best of knowledge, the Saturn V he went to the moon with, and look who gets the recognition ;) for the moon landing not the rocket. That's an interesting subj. in history for another board. I'll keep it on topic! lol.

    Sorry about the CB OFK... Tanks looking great tho!

    How are you liking the WP25? Do you still need the other powerhead? Ive heard/seen people place lower and point upwards, in case you haven't tried yet.

    I really like it - it puts out an amazing amount of flow. That's a good point about the other powerhead, I have always kept a powerhead pointed at the surface one of my "habits" I guess :) I have thought about playing with the placement, but so far how I have it seems to produce a good flow through the tank. The problem I actually have is finding a low flow area for corals needing that.
