I am setting up a 40g cube. It has been running for a bit. I have an MP40 and a MP10 along with a temporary HOB filter, a few fish, CUC, A huge Condi and a few "canary in a coal mine" Zoas.
So I have all this running while I am doing the plumbing and electrical for the sump. Hopefully this weekend I can take the tank off of the HOB life support and run the tank via the sump. It's a long story and a process of why I did it this way, which I probably will relate in a tank build thread. But the long and the short of it, is everybody is very happy, The fish, the anemone, the Zoas, even the GHA, which is probably over an inch or longer in some places. Am I worried about it? No something will out compete it soon, it's just how it is, in the meantime it is a heck of a breeding ground for copepods.
Oh yeah, the title of this post and the reason I am posting this....
"My flow is amazing"!
Watching that GHA softly wain back and forth just like a real ocean...
One day my corals will be very happy.
