holy crap!! i turn around and this thread goes from 12 to 26 pages long!!!
im too old, all i can do is lurk around this thread.
but i did spend at least a half hour catchin up on readin' it!
anyways, i would go with package 1 on the clean up crew, although i tend to feel that 1 herbivore per gallon is a little too much, after the algae is eaten you will have die off, or if you can just ditch the cerith snails all together that would be even better imo. just stay on top of cleaning out dead snails, talk about stimulating algae...
i know how you feel on the plumbing, i think we've all been there, just lick your wounds and regain your strenth for now, so you can REDO it
also, your cl's might be drippin just enough water onto things to be responsible for your salt creep on the bottom seam, it doesnt take much moisture.
i like the idea of adding tunze powerheads to the system, the larger the better! also the one about adding a sea swirl to your return. if you did all that, then you could turn those bulky manifolds into spraybars that fit underneath/ behind the rock.
your doin great, jusk keep plugin away, and hunker down for SEA WARS episode 4, a new algae :lol:
