    The Chaeto is now in the fuge. I have started running some phos as well. The fuge has been up a little over a week and is already growing some unwanted algae! Everything is working great (knock on wood).

    Yeah lowes will cut glass. But, IMO, you are better off going to a glass cutting shop. If you have your own glass they will be more than happy to cut it for you for a small price.

    Just a small update-problem. I seem to have a few areas around the top of my sump that are accumulating a descent amount of salt creep. I just swept it back into the sump. It's mainly where my overflow line enters the sump and around my fuge light. Is it ok to just put it back into the tank?
