    How long does it take to break-in G3?

    I have an ASM as well, smaller model though - you can start running it now as it does take a bit of time to break in, my took a little over a week before all the micro bubbles in the tank went away. Also now is an excellent time to learn how to tune/adjust it at the same time. Just move the...

    floor support

    I had exactly the same issue, I put a 90 gallon on my floor in a spot where I had the same concern plus there was a 3/4 inch drop in a 48 inch area.
