    water level at glass center brace

    Replace one that you have. What size is the bulkhead and the diameter of the j tube? Yes there are larger. I have one rated for 1400gph and one for 700 gph on my tank. The 1400 has dual 1" bulkheads, and the other has 1 1"bulkhead.

    water level at glass center brace

    I wouldn't risk that height for normal operation. I let mine get that high only when I lose syphon and there is no more water in the sump to pump into the tank. I've done this only to test power outage and overflow failure. I marked 2 lines in the sump, MAX ON, and MAX OFF for waterfill...

    Setting Up RO/DI???

    it does. but i did some resurch and found out that they are fine up to 90 degrees. So, since they 99% of systems are rated at 72 degrees, why not bring up the temp close to it? I also checked with the manufacturer of the system, and they stated that as long as I did not exceed 94 degrees...

    Is $250.00 a good deal for 2 250w mh's?

    I agree. It's not that great of a deal. I found a place where you can get a dual ballast for 140. I don't want to put the ad up, but email me and I'll let you know. 250w Dual PFO Magnetic Ballast $143.00

    Also, use a pvc union joint at the pump on the out side. Makes for easy removal.

    Bioball subsititue?

    that's how they rotate. Water sprays on them from the top, and it forces it to turn . Like an old steam ferry wheel.

    Live rock looks like it's dying...

    Full coraline encrustend. Tank only has a yellow tang, starfish with 2 legs the size of a quarter, a real small sallylight foot about the size of a dime, 1 scarlet crab and a cleaner shrimp. Same as before. Nothing has changed except the tank, lights and water.
