the main flow pump is hidden behind the rockwork, on the left hand side of the weir. The SCWD is attached directly to the flow-pump. 2 sets of pipes then emerge from the SCWD and go to either end of the tank. The Y pipes are the outlets at either side of the tank. Water flow alternates between each of these outletsI love your tank, down the bottom ends the y pieces is that the SCWD?
these are a toxic green zoo. I do have palys in the tank, but they are relatively hidden. The zoos at 45 s have grown like a carpet. I still have the very large toxic green zoos but they are located at the opposite end of the tank, above the anemone, behind the open brain coral.Chris
Is that a green paly on the rock at around 45 seconds in this video http://www.thereefuge.com.au/thread...-5ft-x-2-5ft-mixed-tank.87/page-6#post-107341
taken a mental note of this for the future great idea nice and cheap to!OK, final score, Chirs (me) 3, Euncid worms 0!!!!!
I have successfully removed all 3 Euncids from my tank. To do this, I had to devise a trap. These worms are very fast and will retreat from the trap at the slightest disturbance. As they are very long, only the anterior end of the worm enters the trap and thus, to escape, the worm just contracts backwards and is therefore non-trappable. To over come this, I made a tiny 'noose' out of 1lb fishing line. I positioned this noose at the trap enderance in such a way to ensure that the worm HAD TO pass through the noose to get to the trap.
The fishing line was of sufficient length to leave the water and be held by myself. Once the worm entered the trap, I pulled on the fishing line, which tightened around the worm which was then instantly removed from the tank. For bait, I used 'green' prawn.
The details of the trap, which includes the orientation of the worm immediatly prior to trapping, is shown below

Wow very impressed! None of the worms split when you noosed them?OK, final score, Chirs (me) 3, Euncid worms 0!!!!!

they were my favourite damsels i had them in my first ever tank although they were alone for 3 weeks before introducing my clowns and another damsel and they harassed everything, they look amazingNew fish added to this system, a pair of Talbots Damsels. A very peaceful species.
