    ASM Mini-G Shutting Down

    My ASM Mini-G keeps shutting off. After a while it comes back on. I assume it is going off on thermal overload. The skimmer sits in my fuge. Nothing appears to be blocking the intake. I had it apart two weeks ago and it was clean as a whistle, except for the collection cup of course. Anyone...

    Anyone have any ideas on hiding a top off tank? I don't have room in my stand and I really don't want a bucket of water sitting next to my tank. Thanks, Rick L.

    Too much filtration?

    If there is such a thing. I got a 46gal setup from a guy getting out of the hobby. It has two Emperor 280 bio-wheels and a Filstar xP2 canister. The tank has about 7lbs of LR, 2 snails, five fish and possibly live sand. I am planning to add lots more LR and significantly upgrade the cleaning...
