    Running an exterior pump

    Thanks! Hmm sounds like this may be easier if I just drilled the tank. The only reason I was trying to avoid it right now was the need to break down the sump so that I can drill it.

    Thanks I figured so however a little concerned about it being primed and being able to draw in the water on startup.

    Marine velvet treatment

    Thanks for the advice Lee. I've started raising the salinity. At what level is it safe to add Cupramine? I've started treatment with Furan-2 to help with the abrasion that my trigger has. Here's a couple of pics of the purple tang: Thanks for the advice and help.
