    Matt, I heard a unit at my lfs and yes fixture is very quiet. Ok, well I just got dun cleaning up in the basement and garage....few friends came over and we finished a good section of drywall and electrical. Have to mess with the basement lighting and start the ceiling but all is coming together nicely. Here are some pics...

    Hey everyone, not alot of progress since the last time i posted. I just did about another 9 sheets of drywall (who wants pics of that). Im posting to say i returned my warner marine as200e skimmer for a bubble king mini 200 and decided to use all tunze 6055's instead of tunzes with the combinations of vortechs. Im not liking the wire creeping up the side of the tank on the vortechs. They are nice for tanks in walls but i dont wanna look at it on my 180. Heres the bubble king mini 200 pic:
