    Innovative Marine Nuvo 40l vs 50

    Hi, I am comparing the Nuvo 40 long and the 50 lagoon and cannot decide. I read one bad review regarding the Nuvo 50’s build quality and was wondering if this is something to be concerned about? I’m mostly worried about the quality of the seams and water leaks, not so much the pump failing. I...

    Removing Magnet from Glass

    Just made a really stupid mistake when setting up my brand new IM 170. I added a Maxspect Gyre and now want to change is location, but I cannot get the outside magnet off of the glass because I removed the plastic over the adhesive! This adhesive is no joke! Who knows how to get this thing off...

    glass scratch removal methods?

    So I have a bunch of very light surface scratches on a glass tank. I've been looking around and it seems that a cerium oxide and water mixture is the best option for removing the scratches. However I tried it and since the scratches are on a vertical surface, it did not work too well, the cerium...
