OK thanks Jack....

What about the air tube and air control valve where are they suppose to go.
I took a pic to make it easier.

AQTCJAK · 11-02-2007, 10:04 PM

those are if you want to inject air there is no need for the use the clear plug to cover the hole

ASH · 11-02-2007, 10:06 PM

So I don't need to tube at all???

AQTCJAK · 11-02-2007, 10:15 PM

correct

ASH · 11-02-2007, 10:26 PM

Thank you Jack....it is up and running now.

That thing pushes out a LOT of flow.

Should it be at the top or middle of the glass....I know not the bottom I already burnt up one power head by putting it down by the sand. It sucked it up and quit working.

AQTCJAK · 11-02-2007, 10:29 PM

I would say middle that way the flow is good

You will soon find out how poor those suction cups are on the MJ's.

These work great...

Thanks JR

I was reading a thread earlier about those suction cups....but with mine I've got the canopy sitting directly on top of the cord so if it does come un-done it's not gonna go far.

But thank you again and you too Jack

The other night I noticed the pregnant shrimp "rubbing bellies" with the other shrimp. And last night I noticed something on the other shrimps belly. It's belly isn't green but has little white things on it......
