    Just wondering why do you go through all the time and money to maintain your aquariums

    It is the cause and relief of a lot of stress for me. When my wife gets mad at me I go stare at my fish, then she comes and yells at me for staring at my fish........

    I have a unit just like yours, the black IS your waste water, the blue is the good water (If the unit was set up right). If that had not been clarified.
