It's a 3/8" quick connect fitting, elbow to stem. It's just loosely sit on the hole.What's the fitting called for the air intake and the skimmer cup ? Thanks

Finding AEFW is such an awful feeling. The buggers sometime stick really tightly to acros and don't come off with powerhead blasting. You can always try blasting your acros (in tank) with a turkey baster full of RODI too. This does not harm the acros and shocks the FW enough that they let go and float into the water column.
Are your larger acro colony/mini colonies encrusted on the rockwork? If not, weekly dips for 6 weeks might be the way to go. It's a PITA, but effective.
FWS will likely help too. I dosed it at 2x recommended dosage w/o any negative effects in the tank. Load up on peppermint shrimp and a wrasse too (there was a paper recently published that showed peppermint shrimp and sixline eat AEFW and eggs). https://www.researchgate.net/public...cropora-eating_flatworms_in_coral_aquaculture
I have no experience with the in-tank treatments, but am interested to read about your experiences if you decide to go that route.
I just kept dipping until I finished the course, in case I had missed some/some hatched during the dipping regimen. They can be quite small. One of the larvae I found was the size of a period.My main confusion now is that, should I expect to see flatworm dropping out in every weekly dips? The second time I dip, I didn't find a single one. I'm not sure how to interpret that.

Thank youThis is a great build thread! Love the look the ReefBrite add to the tank.
140 grams of 10)% calcium formate (assuming it is fully dry) contains 1.077 moles (43.1 g) of calcium and 2.15 moles of formate.
If you dissolve that in 1 L of water, the concentration is 43,000 ppm calcium and 6,000 dKH.
To raise a 100L tank by 1dKH, you would need 100/6000 = 0.0167 L or 16.7 ml
To raise a 100L tank by 0.1dKH, you would use 1.7 ml
If you dont mind me asking what size M5 SCREWS AND FITTINGS DID YOU USE, AND WHERE DID YOU BUY THEMLights are finally mounted. After evaluating my options for over a week, I finally decided on the solution to directly screw the light to the canopy from the top. The up side is, the lights can go closer to the canopy (1") than using RMS mount (1.5"), also the lights don't have to be aligned horizontally. The down side is not able to adjust position afterwards. This is how they are mounted.
The XR30 on each side sits in the middle of front to back. But because of the overflow tower at the back, the XR15 sits towards the front as much as the canopy allowed, so that it's closer to the center of the usable area.
