anyone ever use an inline flow meter?

I use them at work every day.

i use them at work everyday also, but the ones i use are way expensive. i was just curious to see what my flow is into my tank....

Yes the fun will begin soon when i have to move this into the new tank.... here is a older pic of the existing tank. the glass is a lot less clear now since i have been spending so much time on teh new system... front glass isnt quite as bad as the back glass yet...

Jay,

You may have already covered this, I apologize if I missed it, but did you reinforce your floor for the tank, or did you not need to?

Thanks,

Brandon

Awesome! Just thought I'd ask as I'm planning on doing the same.

Thanks!

I know that is what's crazy about all of this. The man upgraded, and the first day of moving corals over, he has no room for hardly anything else. Shoulda gone 8 feet!
