I drilled an overflow in my 16. It sits on top of the sump for my 180. There is no filtration in the back anymore and I plumbed the pump down in the sump. I drilled holes to make an artificial reef. Also a small powerhead fits inside the back. Pardon the appearance. I don't clean it often. It's behind the scenes.

How’s your flame angel? I really want to put one in my 32g, but fear it’ll be too small of a tank.

So, I've noticed that this tank is really well enclosed (32g). Initially, I had my heater turned up too high and the water got up to 86 degrees. I thought I was going to have issues cooling the tank. I turned my heater off, and left the feed door open for a few days and now it's stable around 78 degrees. If I hadn't left the feed door open, I believe it would've stayed really warm in there. I've also had basically no evaporation so far (in a week and a half). The salinity has been perfectly stable and I haven't had to add any top off water.

No issue, I suppose, just curious if others have noticed this too. The no evaporation surprised me the most.

Do you just have the stock lights? So far I only have one live rock and 2 juvenile clownfish in the tank. Plus sand. My clownfish HATE the daylight lights! Not sure what to do.
