Not sure if this is the right spot for this thread, if not mods feel free to move it, but I am interested in buying the bio home Ultra media from Pond guru in the UK. Checking out some prices on eBay, 22 pounds of it runs for about $160 and cost $120 to ship. Ouch!

Yea definitely the fluval and power head are working double time, but I'm ordering the glass panes for the 30 gallon to turn it into a sump next week.

40ppm is OK don't lose any sleep over it. Sometime I'll get lazy and do a WC every other week n @ that point my nitrates are almost @100ppm with no ill effects

Pretty much what every1 is saying. Do a water the day of or the day b4 u leave turn the lights off set up feeder and ull be alright.
make sure the feeder is set up correctly. When I first got mine it took a week to fine tune how much food to drop.
