That would be the Corallife SuperSKimmer..by ESU. They are the smallest model they make. It is a needlewheel skimmer. Works alright.

Clams
Yes, they don't literally jump but that is what it looks like. Mine have done that before. They only do it when they are not happy where they are placed. Tridacna crocea's live in crevices on a hard substrate in very shallow water exposed to intense radiation and strong water flow. In the aquarium s...

Tridacna crocea
I have never kept a crocea in a tank as small as 10 gallons. I do have one in my current tank, a 100 gallon with 250 watt MH. That being said I did keep one two or three years ago in a 40 long under 260 wt of power compacts (2, 10K and 2, Actinics). I can't remember how long the clam lived but I bel...

White spots
That is what I would think as well. Occasionally when I do waterchanges the coralline on the back glass plate that gets exposed to air will turn white after a day or two. The second thing could be that something is eating it?

Silicone
I would scrape all of the old silicone off around the area that is leaking. Then resilicone.

Green Slime
Also make sure you maximize your water flow. It tends to grow better in dead spots.

Microbubbles
Do you know where the microbubbles are originating from? What type of protein skimmer do you have? So create microbubbles when the water drains from the skimmer. Do you have a sump? If so and there is a fair amount of turbulence in the sump your return pump tends to suck in bubbles and chop them up ...

Sump
Everything looks good except that I would make the drain go to the sump part first because the protein skimmer will remove any small animals growing in your refugium before they get to the display if you keep it the way it is in the design.

100gallons
How soon did they fill the tanks up with water? The 100 gallons that they have on sale are supposed to have a notice that comes with them that says not to be filled with water until a certain date.

Fishfood you are right about the nerite snails...my bad. I really wasn't sure if it was nerite or nassarius snails that stir the sand.

Nerite snails will bury in the sand and may be able to help you. Sea cucumbers as well.

Sand
It is generally best if you get animals that can clean it out for you such as nerite snails, sea cucumbers, and brittle stars. Also, when you do water changes you can move your siphon hose gently along the surface of the sand bed and remove anything lying on top of the sand.
