    Nano cube setup

    Set up my 28g jbj nano last night. This morning my water is still as cloudy as it was the night before. Should I run both my powerheads to increase flow or have them alternating to clear up the aquarium. Thanks for the help.

    Sump return help needed

    My 120 gallon has a dual overflow. My tank came with a mag drive 1800 water pump. Will that water pump be enough for the two returns at 5 feet?

    Fowlr lighting

    Hey everyone. Going over all the stuff I got for my 120 gallon fowlr tank. I am leaning toward getting rid of my wood canopy with the t5 setup which looks like a prehistoric nightmare (preowned tank). I was thinking of getting the marineland glass canopy and using the Ecoxotic Stunner LED...
