    SO NOISY

    2nd question. Always better to put power heads on opposite side . You want them to fight each other really. More directions the water goes the better. Can't have dead spots

    SO NOISY

    A durso pipe and hang on overflow box are totally different Which overflow box do you have?. If it gurgle like the water builds up then goes down the tube fast yea it needs a pipe to add air. Same as on a house plumbing. There are vents out of your roof . They keep water from blocking the drain

    my 90 starts soon

    I have to look through my totes of equipment. I believe i have an eshopps set up. Maybe order the reef savvy then and swap them out. Probably be 2 weeks before i set the tank up. I could swap overflows after the cycle.

    Minimum Recommended Tank Size

    I do see alot of new people get a 20 gallon or not much bigger. My 1st tank was a 45. Imo a 55 is a good 1st tank. But i would prefer a 90. People think its big at 1st but after they put a few things in it really isnt
