    Alternative to suction cups?

    My suction cups die really quickly and are a pain to replace. Is there a way to hang powerheads onto the tank with some kind of hook? I know a few come with clamps, but I want to be able to hang any powerhead I want.

    IceProbe + Styro Lid?

    I have an idea... since the IceProbe works best when it's insulated... why not replace an HOB filter's cover with styrofoam and put the probe through that? Insulate the rest of the filter with styro too.... Just an idea.

    I do wanna ask if I should put a sponge or something over the filter intake... It's what I do for my FW tanks because I have a lot of snails and have had a PH spit out snail bits more than once.

    Tank Specs

    Sure, I know it ain't easy... But I've had over 5 years of experience in freshwater planted tanks, and I want to try something new. I also asked about the waterflow because the mini impeller maxes out at 100gph, but if I add a microhiller that's another source of water movement at 100gph too...

    IceProbe Chiller

    The IceProbe is 2 pounds, I don't think putting it on the side or back of the filter is a good idea... But thanks for your help.

    IceProbe Chiller

    I haven't set up the tank yet, just planning out the equipment I might need. And I was thinking about the summer temperatures. The probe doesn't seem to be fully submerged in the AC mini, since I know there's a space between the top of the lid and the water.

    Um, it's the plasting cover that came with the tank. The lighthood? Here's a link to what the tank looks like: http://www.all-glass.com/products/aquariums/minibow7.shtml

    IceProbe Chiller

    Is there a reason why I can't drill a hole on top of my AGA 7g Minibow's stock hood and install the IceProbe that way? Instead of buying the AquaClear mini with the IceProbe already installed? Please let me know if it won't work.
