Hi aquareeef

nice layout.

Just a question, though. Without a durso wont the water splash a lot as it plummets down the OF box?

Cheers

Errmm... the flow into the overflow box.. but it didnt splash down.. it just flow along the side of the overflow wall..

only regret.. my gravel got diatoms... even snail also lazy to eat.. i brought Seachen Phospguard but like no power leh

thanks for advice bro.. will look into it..

i didnt dump my LR in a one shot too.. started with 3.5kg, then 1.5 weeks after 6kg another 6 kg after 1 week and latest 1.5 kg..

used to used those white pieces of plastic with a lot of square holes which ppl used as a tank cover to stack those LR but today hand itchy remove it and decided to try scaping it myself..
