    And Richard, does it hurt having all that info in your head? How can their be room for it with all that aquatic knowledge swimming around up there.

    Ram, your tank looks great! Does the Phosban reactor need a pump? can you hook it to an overflow and have water draining through it?

    Thanks Tim, but it is looking pretty puny these days, I had a calcium/carbonate storm about a month ago, and the heat and all, lots of hair algae right now, I think either the heat, or the PH drop (or both) caused my rose and a very beautiful mushroom to bleach. The shroom is I think a gonner, I can't see any coloration in it at all (though it is holding on.) the anemone is coloring back up though.

    The Phosban reactor requires a flow of 240 gallons an hour, the instructions say that the media should 'percolate' as water rised out of it. Since i don't have any overflows, there is no solution there, the only thing I can think of, is to Y off the SCWD, but there simply isn't room for that. I think my best bet is to just try and keep everything stable, as is, for now, until the new tank arrives... of course, I am thinking about ripping down my carnivorous plant tank (55 gallon) and using it in the interum, but that is just to much friggin work.
