Suck

We cant even stop them with gutter guard. We deffinatly put sponge over all the maxijets.

Fortunately for me, MJ have only caused enough damage to cause BTAs to split and not death. But wiser now and use the foam inserts on Maxijets ( even though extra maintenance to keep clean ). Unfortunately we here this scenerio too often even in our little forum.

That sucks man. You gotta grab my tricolor anenome. The thing is splitting again.

you could also use a hydro sponge as well. www.kensfish.com has super cheap prices on them. I used them with my MJ's in my freshwater breeding tanks.
