i thought that to as well but i wanna make sure. so following questions:
1. Why is the Koralia in the back?
2. Are you planning to add a new one in the front?

LOL yes I plan on putting a Koralia 1 or 2 in the front. I figure the return is circulating the front a little and I didn't want any dead spots in the back. But definitely planning on adding one to the front. Not sure which direction would be best to put it for best all over flow? I'm a she, not a he.

well some corals love water flow some dont. depends on the coral
MY BAD.. I thought you meant you could tell girls by what coral they picked.....

I have the nano in the back of the rock to keep dead spots down back there. I can direct the output to any where. .I guess I need to get the Koralia ordered to see how powerful it is.. LOL

I guess I am the only one who Thinks the power head in the back is a good idea
I always put one in the back because that is where the "dead" spots are
Seems to make sense....keep it in the back!

P.S. remember ...."NO smelly stuff"!!!

That's two votes for the #1; think the #2 would be too much? DEFINITELY NO smelly stuff. I read a thread on here about someone taking the shrimp out after cycle.. Sounded really gross.. LOL

Check your PM. Scratch that. .It won't let me PM you either. I am going to post the site; I don't think it would be against the rules since they don't sell aquariums here (and the site doesn't sell livestock). oceanreeflections.com; the owners name is Ken and is fantastic to deal with. Just tell him I sent you. :) We emailed back and forth quite a bit.

For sure I will!!!
If you ever get a chance, I would love to see a picture of the top of your aquarium. It appears there are glass or plexi cover that goes over the front and back leaving just the center open. This would be very good for me and my situation at home with the kids/pets.

Yes it is two pieces of glass; one smalll in the front and one larger near the back with the middle open. You can arrange them any way you want. I'll take a pic tonight when I get home from work.... I just checked Ken's website and they still have the same price I got mine for.. 524 with shipping, that's with the T5 light fixture.

Cool... I was there as well looking. So many configurations with the lights. I am jut confusing myself even more. LOL
It is probably between the (6) 24w T5's or the (1) HQI 150w with the (2) 24w T5's. Not much of a price difference.
