I would love to join if possible. I’ve put in for me and a +1 if we happen to have space. I’ve heard wonderful things about previous tours. It’s so great that Matt is willing to do this for us. Thank you!

I see that it’s common to use ABS bulkheads for the overflow of an aquarium. What do people use to connect PVC pipe to an ABS bulkhead? I’ve got a new 120 gallon acrylic aquarium with an internal overflow with holes in the bottom for overflow and return plumbing. It came with what I believe are...

I'm looking to try to do the same thing with my forthcoming 48 x 24 x 24 acrylic peninsula tank. Will 2 x MP40s likely be enough for that (LPS/mixed + fish)? For the same reasons as above, I'd prefer the VorTech powerheads over a gyre style. Not having to remove the cords to clean is a...
