Looks fantastic! Good to see some real progress. I see a faint light at the end if the tunnel. :p

Clown.

It's sooo quiet!!!! Especially since it's an open stand, you would expect some kinda noise. The pump is humming vibrating ever soo slightly. But I hope that should go away when it gets slimed up.

Does the pump have good rubber feet on it?

Thats what the ghost overflow is supposed to do :D It even makes an ehiem sound loud.

Looks good, glad to see some water in it.

All he needs is for someone to install his flooring and he move the tank into it's new home :noidea:

I ask this question to a reef savvy post on Facebook but didn't get an answer. Toxic can you verify if the water going trough the teeth has a drop on the box from looking at the videos I didn't see a water drop and this could be bad if due to no skimming capabilities it would allow a lot of water to bounce back into the water column. Rick you might have a better answer? The reason I ask is because I'm interested in one but I want to hear from people using it

No, it has a drop. Otherwise, as you mentioned it, wouldn't surface skim. :)

Yes it drops. And yes there is 24" of surface skimming :). Kevan can give his experience as well.

It skims great. The tank had a bunch of dust/styrofoam etc in it and now it's floating in the sump. The ghost skimmed it off in no time.
