yup. just tested everything its fine. calcium is a bit low. but thats not bad. haha. just doing a 25gallon waterchange now. im so bored. haha home alone
 
Lol, have a look through google sell all the furniture, tv's etc and get a 1000gallon tank if you do all this before everyone gets home you can maybe get a portable TV player to go in the living room along with the 1000gallon and they might not notice.
 
well . not as gd as a 1000g but my parents want a 400g in the new room downstairs. which is nice . all payed for . nd there loaded so i get all the best stuff. so its like * MY ..... parents tank * ill be starting a post about it soon :p
 
I feed in the evening and always turn off the return pump, usually after dosing myself with 2-3 Vodka Martinis, dose self not tank is my rule, numeres times the return has been of for 8-10 hours over night, never lost anything or had a problem, just low temp, heaters are in the sump, might be worse durring the day with th MH on.
 
yeh i am going to from now on . haha. my heaters are in the sump too. the water temp was fine till the sump water retuned. the halides kept it warm enough
