Question for anyone that owns/has seen a finnex 22g glass m-tank.

[todd_nano]

Seriously considering picking one of these up...

1) In the picture on PA's website it looks like there might be some kind of acryllic lid. Is there one? If not, is there a lip to rest a custom lid?

2) Are these drip trays easily removable? I don't want them.

3) What are your thoughts on the skimmer? I'm guessing its probably junk and ought to be replaced. If you've done so, what have you gone with?

4) How is the return pump? Worth replacing with an MJ12?


Thanks.

1- Two separate glass tops: one covering back area and one covering front area. Middle section is open. I have the mh if that matters to you.

2- Just lift them out, they stand on each other, so you have like 3-4 trays to lift out.

3- So far after having the tank for almost 2 weeks the skimmer is kicking butt. Took about 3 days for the foam to build up. IMO I think this skimmer is good enough to stay put.

4- The return pump is really pretty strong. I see water movement in all areas of the tank with the one pump. I plan on getting another pump and running it over the back partition~give me a higher water level and extra flow which I think is critical for a successful reef tank.
