I had a whole plan in my head that did not work out, so here's what I did for temporary. I still have the ato to set up. I used the ato in the sump and pomaded it with life rock chunks. I really like the look of the ice cap stuff.

Nice job, I like the CPR overflows. Be careful with you skimmer skim line. As I was told it is better to leave it plugged and empty the cup. The skimmer could overflow the discharge bottle.:)

I have shut this thing off many times. I have to turn off the pump/ skimmer to feed the fish. If not it goes immediately down the overflow. The problem I'm having is too much air in the water.. any advice from anybody.? I have turned it way down, it seems to help, but there are so much bubbles. It makes it look cloudy.
