I'm loving that juvi Chevron......looking good!
My wife was none too pleased in the way the house looked today and the amount of water I spilled on the floor. I got some new toys from BRS yesterday so I wanted to clean and do some changes to the sump part of the tank. I got an Eheim 1260 return pump, a new check valve, and an Alpha 2 Bio-Pellet Reactor with 500ml of BRS bio-pllets.

Love the build, and your son is adoreable. I have a 14 month old and a 4 year old, so, I'm going through the same thing with them. The one difference between us, is my fiancee (I force her too haha) get her hands wet and actually help out with the tank 
. You're doing great though, and I'm super jealous of those lights!!

I can’t help you with your wife or kids…….but……….
I organized my wires by putting in big conduit clamps and running the wires through these. I can’t remember the actual size, but I’m thinking 1 ¼ to 1 ½ clamps…to fit the plug ends. You’ll find these plastic clamps in the electrical department of HD or Lowes. I also used stainless steel screws to hold the clamps in place. Hope this helps.

Both of my Radions fans broke in the last week and I got them both replaced. When they broke I started to Google about them and came across a video on how to upgrade the LED cluster... (got me thinking)
What was more interesting is that the video was on the official ecotech site. However I couldn't find a place to buy the clusters at all online. While I was on the phone with them I brought up the video. They said that is for other countries. Since we live in the US the only way to upgrade mine from the gen 1 to the pros is to have ecotech do it. I have 2 options. the first is to buy the entire new fixture for whatever it cost retail and then they will send it to me. I send them my old ones and they will credit me the money back minus $300 for the fixture plus shipping. (that's 300 per fixture) Option two is to send them my fixture with $300+ shipping and then they will send me the new one. What I like about ecotech is that they are in Allentown PA. So if it ships out today I will have it tomorrow!
