Hey Steve24 i have one more question for you. With your emperor filter do you get those annoying microbubbles? does it bug your corals or do they not even notice it?
i get very few microbubbles, mostly if the water level drops to low, but with daily top offs that doen`t really happen ...

whats the problem with a few micro bubbles? the salt creep? is that why people care so much? Doesn't bother me..
Anyways, I just want to say thats an awesome tank! & if ur frustrated with the xenia growth then you should find a LFS that will take a huge chunk for some cash. I'm sure you can make a nice $50 getting rid of half of that.

Why don’t you re-analyze my post again ALEX4286. My "concern" is if the micro bubbles aggravate the corals or anemones in some way, which is a completely logical and understandable "concern" IMO. My question was not one based on atheistics. Micro bubbles have the tendency to stick to some of the mucus membranes of some of the creatures in this hobby, thereby irritating the coral/anemone. Micro bubbles tend to coalesce if they are trapped in a location forming large bubbles or in other words stagnant pockets of air that don’t circulate. That is why I asked that question to STEVE24
