Copperband pacing behavior normal?

[JoJosReef]

Only been in the tank since Wednesday, so still fairy new, and I haven't seen him or her over the weekend, so no idea if the pacing has stopped. I just found it curious that this CBB spent so much time going around and around the MP40. NOTE: it has also explored all over the tank, but I have noticed that it spent a decent amount of time along the glass during the first two days in the tank.

Bonus high five if you can tell the sex of the CBB for me:

Mine paces on the glass, I think looking for pods.

Well, I'll find out if he/she (and the Foxface) is still alive tomorrow morning and if he/she is still enjoying the MP40!

Also think I found an easy/cheaper way to set up the fridge. I have this drill bit for cutting grommet holes (I used to cut a hole in the stand for cords):

If I can drill a 2" hole in the top or side of the fridge without hitting any coolant coils or electric lines, I can run the power cables through the grommet. And for the dosing tube(s), to keep them from getting smashed, I can cut and position these through the grommet to pass the silicone tubing through for support:

I should have only one or two dosing lines coming out of the fridge. To fill up the extra space in the grommet hole and keep the temp down, I can fill the hole with foam squeezed in there, kind of like insulation. Metal straw will keep the tubing from getting squished, and cables don't really matter.

Nothing new to buy, except maybe some foam. Think that will work?
