So is the water level not a big deal then if i'm losing 3 or 4 inches of water per day?

I do check on mine everyday. I lose around 6 quarts per day. Is that not enough to worry about? It's probably about 3 or 4 inches of water.

I have a small ricordea frag that i moved from my 46 to my new 90 gallon with 2 150 mh and 4 t5ho. It appears frag is starting to bleach and it's not really opening up. I've moved him down to the sand. I did acclimate my lighting i'm only up to 4 hours/day for the mh. Is there a chance it's...

Where's the best place to get a clip on fan that I can put in my canopy?

I was planning on just adding them one at a time, maybe just 1 per month. I don't want to go too fast. Should I be adding more than one at a time?

Does anyone run a HOB skimmer for use in a sump? I'm using a submersible pump in my sump and don't have a ton of room for a skimmer. Does anyone use a HOB skimmer on the side of their sump?
