atoll Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Just a small mod to make working in the sump that little bit easier and far better to see in it. I fitted this small ( 12" ) florescent light above my sump. 1 Quote Link to comment

atoll Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 At last my Santa Monica HOB2 turf scrubber has kicked in and turf/hair algae is starting to grow.

With a bit of luck my caulerpa which arrived unnoticed and becoming a pest will die back if not all together. 2nd pic shows the turf scrubber attached to the sump. 1 Quote Link to comment
