Added a battery powered pump. Power has been out since 8am.
maybe it's a good thing I want to get out. Might have 7 Mares soup tonight.

Added Stockings to my powerheads. I don't care if they get gunked up. I bought 12 pair for 3.99. I can change them out. I'd rather have gunky powerheads than chopped up nems!

Glad the food is received well. It should be since everything I put in my recipe is quality ocean grub.
don't waste any opportunity on good drink pics.

overflow small 005.jpg Received my order containing Lifeguard screens/strainers these are cool so I ordered a pair of each size. FYI each size fits the face of what ever bulkhead you are using once installed meaning you don't see the bulkhead flange anymore. Another thing is they are from 3/8" to 1/2" depending on size thick/sticking out from tank pane once installed:)

These are the kind I am talking about.

Or just use the controller to tone it down...
That's a lot of pump for a 75g tank. U better put a ball valve on it.
I turned it on to level 1... Then went up to level 2... I think 2 is gonna be my max... Don't think the overflow can keep up Lol

Edit
Just turned it up to 3 and... My overflow can't take in water fast enough...

Looks like 2 is the limit... Lol

I found that my Eshoppes probe holder magnets had exploded out of the acrylic. It left a huge rusty mess and I still dumbfounded how this may have happened. So a simple water change ended up being a bit more complicated. I had to remove the pH and Temp probes to get the rusty mess of a probe holder out of my sump. Tracing the "Wires" and unwinding them form all the rest was a challenge.

In the meantime, any recommendations on probe holders?

Thanks,

Mike
