    Since October, my last update, I've been pretty busy...and I'm only going to get busier because the tank is wet!

I attribute it to the wide overflow, and the sump design.

    I have a skimmer on order, an RLSS r10, which I'm dying to get my hands on. So far the tank has run completely skimmerless since it was filled. ...
