The red Monti setosa has been growing on me (rimshot). I like how it has filled in horizontally and created a maze of branches that the firefish uses as the entrance to his cave.

He's popping in and out much more frequently lately.

I got this 3D printed stand for the Eheim autofeeder. Could get another one for the AT-AT:

Also thought about putting it in with an encrusting SPS frag in a cool color that might cover it over. Like this guy for a Hoth theme:

or maybe this one:

Long overdue but great tank (and thread)! One question for you, where did you get the stand for the Eheim feeder? That's genius.

Uff, only partway through this new screen/Plank process. Found the only space in the tank that the plank would fit without breaking apart corals. Cut the mesh on the AIO baffle (my custom fish-jumper-through-emergency-overflow shield) to exactly fit the Plank. Looks beautiful! Thanks @AVAST Marine for making the custom AIO baffle fittings! Fits perfectly!

I did have to raise the tube as much as possible, because otherwise it would have been injecting reef jerky right on top of the favia--who may not have minded.

Took precise measurements for the lid cutouts and currently hacksawing window screen framing! A clamp and a level would have just been awesome... Likely going to finish this project tomorrow and start calibrating the Plank!

A plank! I’m so on the fence of getting one!

I think I’m going to. My anthias eat around 5 times a day and they refuse flake. I’m hoping the freeze dried jerky mix will be appealing and delicious to them
I'll report on how it goes. The unit is large for my tank, but found a spot where it just fits. Should have it running tomorrow and none too soon--eheim was moved over to the clown prison and their liquid doser has been clogging so fish are hungry when I get in!
