Any weird devices you haven't checked like probes?
I checked everything this afternoon with a meter and found that I had about 1.2-1.3 volts ac running through the water column in the sump. I checked everything again and found that my doser was putting about .5 of that and it is not touching the water. Can't imagine where it was making contact but I cleared the lines from any power cords and moved the mag hanger and it went away.

Everything was putting about .1 - .3 V into the sump when checked individually. Not sure what is acceptable leakage because all things leak to a point.

New addition is looking great in your tank. Glad @Murica was able to take the beast in and give a great home.

ps I’m practicing for the next beer shotgun compilation. I will dethrone you
I may have to come out of retirement for this. I was Western Ma chugging champ in 83

OK FINE ! ! ! ;Hilarious ;Yuck;Hilarious

Got the Orphek installed, think I need to raise it some more. It's at 13" over the water line but shading on the ends is a little extreme.... Can I move the hangers on it to the outside bolts? Can't find anything that says yea or nay....

I see no reason why not. Just flip the hanging bolts to the outside. You'll have the same support. Funny I never considered that.

looks great BTW!

@Scurvy I did move the hangers to the outside set and moved the light up to 15.5" off the water. I left the T5 at 12" for less light spill from them. I also turned up the intensity of the lights following the @Bulk Reef Supply settings for the Atlantiks. Seems a little less spread than the 2 - 26HDs but I love the color. Seems a lot less blues when taking pics now as well. Don't have to edit for color now.
