My tank is very shallow with no depth of water and plus rockwork is shallow too,,depending on your rock work ..RW-15s should be good for softies and LPS..When I was trying to make my mind up on which model,,,I looked at the GPH but under estimated the shear volume of water it moves all at once,,like an undertow..LOLOL

I checked the salt mix container's level being used for AWC. Around half full. Will check again in a few days and make more saltwater.

I got in and installed a float switch( its a rather large float switch!) from buckeye hydro to put in my saltwater mixing container to shutdown my stenner pump for automatic water changes so it doesn't pump out water from my sump draining my tank in case I forget or don't get new saltwater made in time or something happens and the stenner is told to stay on because my controller fails or any other crazy issue.

More details and picture in my log here

Went to town on the tank today. Rescaped for maybe the 20th time over the year. Tanks been setup for just over a year. Clean the coraline off the acrylic, and pulled out the two 1150 korollias and cleaned out all the gunk. Cleaned the skimmer, did a large wc, and changed out a small bag of carbon.

Added a clown goby and zoa colony in one tank and an orange spotted goby in the other. Also bought a Gyre XF130. About to buy a trap to catch a tobacco basslet that has worn out his welcome.

Added a small shelf in the stand for dosing pump. Subsequently dropped said dosing pump in the ATO reservoir while testing fit. Pulled it out quickly and am hoping I didn't kill it. Could have been the most expensive shelf ever installed.
