ughhhh....
I ordered some knock off lily pipes from asia...they look great but they already broke! I put the tubing on dry to see if it would fit and it wouldnt come off...as I was trying to pull it off the outflow snapped in half in my hand! I haven't even used them yet! thats what I get for to go cheap. I'm just having crappy luck with this tank...I tried to glue it with silicone. so hopefully it bonds well in the morning, but im not too optimistic. I am also battling some green hair/thread algae, so I had to order a new bulb for this fixture. I didn't want to cuz im upgrading my lighting anyway, but I dont have the money for that setup right now. the new bulb is a cfl and it was only 10 + shipping. havent had the chance to do any maintenence either with my work schedule... or set up my new filter...woe is me!
