I've left reviews on @Marine Depot before too without ever seeing it or getting credit for it. Also asked questions about a product without ever getting a response from them. Only bad thing I can say about them though. I posted about it above. And yea I normally don't have a issue with Marine Depot but it's like they don't want bad reviews on there site...... Im thinking of taking a from from my toadstool and moving it to this tank but it's just so perfect I don't want to bother it. Here's a video link. Quote Link to comment

Pjanssen Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 I fragged about half of my toad as it was getting to big for the tank. It is as beautiful as ever and I was able to sell of about $40 worth of frags 1 Quote Link to comment
Addinali Posted June 11, 2017 Author Share Posted June 11, 2017 So far I have had an issue with this IceCap ATO. So my Urchin blocks the over flow a little making the water rise above both sensors and the alarm goes off its super annoying. And then when he moves it lowers the water level the ATO kicks on and skips the first sensor and fills to the second setting the alarm off again. This has happened 3 times now and it's really annoying. I have no clue what causes it to skip the first sensor when this happens. Quote Link to comment

I like the IM Hydrofill TI much better. There is no audible alarm which was unnerving at first, but my nerites will block the over flow in the lagoon, so the alarm was really annoying (I had used the smartlevel in a sumped system previously, so if it overfilled, there was a big issue and the alarm was nice to have). So, I feel you on the alarm. 1 Quote Link to comment

gone_PHiSHin Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 hang in there dad, we all know tank woes are unfortunately a certainty at some point but i would look at it as an opportunity to try to explain to your kids how delicate the fish and aquarium is! as someone said, being that the tank has to be fallow for a while, have the kids pick out some cool inverts in the meantime. btw, cute kids but they look like TROUBLE 1 Quote Link to comment
