DC fan is noisy. should use AC fan

Haha... with your Arctica in place... remove the fans... the MH was designed by the Germans without the need for a fan... therefore I really dun see a need for it :)

It must be one of the other equipments that you removed from your tank... are you selling off your grounding probe? :heh:

Are all the flows from belind firing (reture from chiller, tunze etc...)?

You might want to consider shifting at least one flow to be fire from the front to create better wave simulation like change of wave of even tidal currents. This kind of wave simulation is very importance especially for SPS tank. :P
