dang! salty stand? salty carpet? salty light corrosion? what kind of
bubble party are you imagining? ha

yeah I think I wasted money on the wands and tubing. I do like the
background bubble look and maybe I'll set it up just to see, but everyone
has agreed on the salty mess so that's enough for me.

Im with Wayne on this one. Do not use air stones in a salt water tank.
If you do anything for oxygenation do it in the sump but a good skimmer
will do this effectivley anyway. Salt Will Destroy All.
