    Nice adds congrats, it is normal for GSP to be closed for a couple of days. You can place the GSP on the sand with your lights. The birdsnest can be placed in the middle area of the rocks if you can get it strong flow. I would add at least another Koralia 750 if not two to your circulation.

    Not good to hear :( but the other one is the one i was talking about not coming out i was told it was a GSP it looked a little like grass at the LFS. Maybe i should trade the other before it dies.

    That's up to you, you might get lucky and it could make it. But on the GSP just give it a few days and it'll come out.

    You already have 2 so might as well add two more. That will get you to 3000gph plus whatever flow comes from your sump or filtration. That will give you enough to eliminate dead spots in the flow.

    Sweet thanks for the help I have a Eshopps Skimmer and canister filter at the moment. Looking to get a sump/refuigum with auto top off.

    It looks as though the Koralia 50% off sale at Big Al's is still on today. Make that your first stop in buying them.
