    Yup, the vids from the green machine. That is a seriously huge cube. I found it quite interesting that he does all the work from the outside. My arms got tired just watching that video. (James Explains...:laugh:)

    what are you using in your filter? try using as much as possible flos, as this will help clear the water, then when the water is clear, run some Carbon, to polish the water, so that it looks like you have no water at all!

    Thats what im doing now with my tank, then the last two days im running a UV filter, then i take a final Pic

    I did order one. Will get it next week. But its a boyu so im not sure. Its 1000lph i think. Yeah im not adding allot of livestock so there isnt that big of a bioload. But was thinking of getting a canister next month. Hope i can make this scape a success. Still trying to figure out what ferts i will be using. Just dosing excel now. Will start with ferts when the co2 is setup
