  2. go for it! as long as you keep it fed it shouldn't be an issue.

    Same with biocube, but they went DIY. It shouldn't be too hard...

    Well it's going to be tough using an external overflow on your tank, but I think it could be done. Look into buying a eshopps or CPR overflow. You could also drill it. Evaporation will happen super fast on a 5 gal sump, understand, a 5 gal sump isn't 5 gal, it's around 3. since it's a small size like that, it doesn't have to be a tank, it could be a 5 gallon bucket.

    I've seen eshopps overflows on biocubes. Dude, my stand is 1" too small for a 10g!!!!!:( I'd like something that I can see through. I think eshopps makes a sump that fits.

    It should....

    Anyways good news! Today my dad and I were going through his old baseball cards and memorabilia and there's some valuable stuff in there! He got 10 baseball card sets from the early 80s that he'd like to sell. He said if I help him sell it that he would give me a cut.:D so im going to hold off on getting the lights until I know whether or not this will go through. So maybe sometime this month or early next month... Depends on how fast it all sells. SO, what will I do with that $$$ IF I get it? Well, I'd like to get an AI sol and controller with an ATO:) then I would be very happy.

    We will see...

    I'd just read biocubes thread on it and mimic his plans. They look sick! I'm sure he'd be more than willing to help ya with any questions. Super nice guy!

    Yeah! I'll do basically the same except I'll use an eshopps overflow instead of DIY.:)
