Been working good. Was a bit noisy (gurgling) and every few seconds bubbles would push out at the sump where the hoses drain. I adjusted the drain lines to sit right over the water and the noise stop. The gurgling at the overflow stopped by turning down the return pump just a bit. Since then it's been good.

So far no diatom outbreaks. Nitrates haven't spiked either. They went up to a bit less than 10 ppm yesterday I increased the vodka to 5 ml for yesterday and this morning they were at 0. So far everything is good. I did lose my peppermint shrimp and my fire shrimp tho. The powerhead won the battle while they were in the container.
