    actually youtube videos are what convinced me it was a good buy, plus you definitely get what you pay for in this hobby. i've spent just as much on cheap powerheads already when i could've just spent the cash originally and saved time and hassle.

    check out youtube and you'll see some really cool things the mp10 will do. but i definitely will post more once it arrives.

    really hope it doesn't blow the skin on my corals away like my koralia did

    Oh ya I forgot to mention, during the switch up of all the rocks I lost my ORA Candy Cane(only 2heads) I think it's buried in the sand, I tried looking for it but had NO luck after an hour of lifting the rocks. I didnt want to dig my hands too deep into the sand so I guess it's a goner! Just like my randalls pistol shrimp, he some how decided to try carpet surfing, we found him dry as a bone near the fuge

    Love the new look you definitely succeeded on your goal. Congrats on the Vortech. That is going to be the next purchase for my reef.

    Sorry to hear on the shrimp.

    Some more pictures...

    My FW tank is looking great, recently added a new light fixture and have been dosing Kents ProPlant. They get fed twice daily with a mixture of flakes and blood worms and the angel pair spawns about once a month.

    This is a the whole sw setup at a front glance.

    And a new look at the fuge... the leathers down there are going nuts with growth, chaeto is thriving very well, and so are all the pods! unfortunately I do see hundreds of small tan flatworms on the glass.. They arent in the DT anymore maybe due to my six-line, but man they sure do cover up my fuge glass. ofc they are very hard to see unless you get on your hands and knees but their there! I used to run that HOB filter you can see with some carbon in there but tbh i think the fuge prefers the slower flow. i have my return pump set to about 80% and i get zero microbubbles
