How is it now?
I will check in 10 min when I get home. I was freaking out because I had to leave my house and things weren’t looking good.
 
While not the vistas Mr. Brown is enjoying today; I got my bu-tt out of the house on a chemo week and drove 2 blocks to a mainstay, Ventura surf spot. 62 degrees and sunny. Refreshes the soul.

Lovely! And you are taking chemo?
 
I had an rfa spawn from stress during the rescape. It looks great now. Honestly a little surprised.
Speaking of the rfa I just got one today. I put it in the 10 gallon with the other nems. I look great when it arrived but it is now almost in the sand. Is that where they like it?

They will move wherever, but usually start like that

Ok should I just leave him alone?

Also the urchin looks fine now. Hanging out under a rock just how I left him. Tank water is. It cloudy any more
