You sure you can't fit it on the left side of your tank? Prob too high as the water level will be too low for it to operate properly, just like my tank. Will study it properly before buying (for sure). Then, your T5 may also block it, right?

If your tank is still ok by the 20th next month... don't really see a need for you to get the MCE600 :lol:

I am not getting the MCE600 :( Need to invest in a more powerful chiller. I can't stand the chiller running all the time :angry:

Bro... ur Seios look like surveillance cameras... like a maximum security camp!!! Does it bother you having so many pumps visible inside the tank?

True... no filter... do you think 2 Tunze Streams can do the job? But again, Streams are even bigger <_< Are you still looking for some kinda mechanical filter? Seems like you are relying on Biological and Chemical now. Wait... I think protein skimmer is considered Mechanical.

It's $359.00!!! :lol: Yeah... it will cost too much to get 2 of them to achieve circular flow... and not to mention having 2 huge dumbells in the tank... ain't pretty for sure ;)

Once the SEIOS got coralline algae over them... they can be quite alright :lol:
