Less than 36 hrs. I just did another test today and it looks like this (see picture below). I also would like to know if I can/should change my aqua scape to make it more open if that's even possible. And lastly where should my water lvl be in regards to my overflow?

It's signal baffle, custom insert for media, flows underneath the whole length of the overflow. So first chamber is media, second is ruble rock, third is pump and heater. Still trying to find the right powerhead for a 6 gallon nano

For what it's worth, I put a Hydor Korilia 240 in my 5 gallon pico. There isn't any dead spots at all. Also, I would, if you can, change where your heater is. The pump chamber is the one that will change water level.

You could call Shoreline Pet in Old Saybrook, I think they have Korilia's in stock.

Care to post a pic of it? Also what lights and powerhead do you have?

I have a Fluval Edge 6g, which has a very specific design with a hood. So to keep that look, I have a custom Ultrabrite 27w upgrade on it. I'm using the Koralia 240. I'm five months in....It's not the masterpiece tank some have, but I'm fond of it!

Nice tank. I've thought about doing a single clown but an expensive 1. Looks nice.

Awesome. You'll have fun. My clown is a blast to watch. Are you doing corals? I'd definitely rec the Koralia 240. Has been working great for me. What light do you have on it now?

I have the stock 3watt light. I want to add a clown, and make it a zoa garden. I've been thinking of hitting up my local grow shop and seeing what grow lights they have

Awesome. That'll look great. Definitely think about a lighting upgrade - my zoa's love high light.
