Has anyone ever had mold grow in their stand around their sump? And what is a way to get rid of it?

This is my new 20 gallon with my handmade stand and canopy. I have a 5.5 gallon sump for a total of about 25 gallons. Marc is building me an internal overflow and i should be getting that later today. I will post more pictures as i get it up and running.

Ok i have an overflow box and i am just doing a freshwater test and i am getting alot of noise from the box. It just has a lot of slurping sounds. When i bought it, it came with one of the diy mufflers and it still makes alot of noise. What can i do to keep the noise down because this is in my...

I was just curious if you could use superglue gel to attach a frag to a piece of rock. I was not sure if it was safe in the aquarium without polluting the water.

Is there anyway to hook a spray bar to a Rio 600 Powerhead?
