I have my Tunze’s wires routed through bulkheads in my tank so the wires can’t be see and it makes cleaning a bit more of a chore as I have to do it on top of the tank as opposed to outside.

Was the flow still strong with all that coraline on the pump ? Quick question do you have any suggestions on green hair algae. My tank has been running for 4-5 years and I just removed all of it right now in one of my videos. Anything I should know so it won’t come back . I was dealing with it for like a month
