    Hmmmm. Ok. I know (at least with the packaging) that he suggests trying to blow it out with an airpump. I tried that several times but it's so clogged it actually blows the airline off the fittings.
    I am not running it in a media bag, but the inlet is in my overflow box, so it does have some protection.

    Well, got everything in from reefcleaners today. I am at work so I got the missus acclimating everything. I was asked "all this is supposed to go in the little tank?" so I assume it ended up being a rather large macro list ;D I am excited to organize everything in the fuge and finally have that 90% complete. Oh, and excited about the conch too. Even slimy shelled things can really get my goat ::)

    What is it that you're looking for in particular? The skimmer and sump?

    That's great, man! You know you've planned well when you display your fuge. I dig the FFS, you just coined a phrase. Let the history books show. . . .. :)
