    Peek-A-Boo the red shines through, when you look into the HOG.5

    This HOG.5 with just a single LED light has been running in shallow saltwater, about 4 inches deep (probably because no deeper area was available), and you can see the waterline where growth occurs only below the line. Keeping the upper part above the waterline provides a benefit though... it keeps most of the salt spray inside the case, and make it more quiet too.

    Here is a simple filtering/feeding setup for freshwater; it's either a HOG.5 or HOG1 and the fish will learn to pull algae out of the holes to eat.

    This is a HOG.5 scrubber® that is newly installed; it is one LED, and a small Green Grabber® algae attachment area. Since it is shown here on a large sump, is can only be used to grow fresh food for feeding; it is too small for filtering this system. Keeping the top slightly above the waterline makes it more quiet and keeps most of the spray inside. There should also be a black shade cloth over half the light until some color of growth develops.

    This small HOG.5 which is the same physical size as the HOG1 and HOG1x takes up little space inside sump cabinets. This Hog is probably too small to do real filtering on this larger tank but it can reduce your glass cleaning, and also grow live food, thus allowing you to use less packaged foods.
