Nevermind. I see your video. It looks like it has a couple of dips in it. Eliminate those dips and the air won't get trapped there.
This is the fix.

I see you made the change and it's working. Dips are bad. No dips is good.
 
FTS of the fuge. Looking really good after a clean up

As long as everyone is ok, they'll be happier once you get the ... i dunno.. As long as their fine and fed.
Fish are ok , lost some stuff. Oddly just a monti. The bigger colonies seemingly ok. Except one.

I neglected mine after my ac went out in the house. I didnt even think about consumption dropping from a heat event but it will. Dosing 110ml of alk a day in a 80g system will skyrocket alk. I had never seen a hanna out of range for alk before that happen
 
Coral care is mostly back in the right direction.

Biggest news is I sprung for a chaoti wrasse finally, and a clown tang.

Clown tang is settled the mirror trick stopped his doom.


However the chaoti wrasse hasn't eaten much of what I've fed the last few days. Here's what I tried and have in the works.

- dried mysis, krill, calanus shrimp, pellets, blood worms
-nutramar paste on glass
-my sump algae with live bristles and pods and everything, copperband loves this stuff
- currently hatching brine from eggs

Any other thoughts on getting the chaoti with wrasse to eat?

Both are very social:
