Electrical cabinet. I tried to somewhat organize it.

My ATO reservoir, I probably will upgrade to a 2.5G bucket to hold fresh RODI water, this was cheap and worked

Since my lighting isn't conducive to good pictures at the moment (acclimation mode, I think its super blue since its later in the evening on my schedule. Running David Saxby's preset without modifications, maybe I'll need to dial it back.) Here is a picture of my little man right before I bought him.

Shot under white light.

My clown is showing signs of internal parasites, though those symptoms are also related to dietary issues. I have ordered some prazipro to proactively treat him just in case, will be soaking his food and if there are any issues they will be knocked out. I need to go get some frozen food to add into his diet aswell.

As far as cleanup crew all of the astraeas are doing well, I think soonish I shall get some cerith snails to aid on the walls and substrate.
