Definitely worm free (IMLagoon25)

Nope! If there's food they'll stay. Mine mostly transitioned to the backside/underside of rocks and the sump. They're just harder to see/find.
Great, I dose phyto 3 times a week! I'll do more when I start to add sponges and larger dusters.
 
Felt like posting this aswell, how big do you think they'll get, I keep thinking they're done growing and they keep getting bigger!

I know I promised you all a big update, but that completely fell apart :(
I'm getting new return pumps, they were supposed to get here Monday, but USPS will do what USPS does best and take FOREVER
I'm getting another fish, and I was supposed to go pick it up Monday, but I got sick!!!
The ONLY thing that went according to plan was that.. I got some mangroves from a very nice lady, and they actually did get here Monday!
Mangroves turned out to be WAY more complicated than I thought, so they have their own thread, please go check it out!

So, here is the long awaited update!
I upgraded my pumps from the stock return pumps to a mightyjet 538 on a splitter. I got two mightyjet pumps from a r2r member for $100! I'll probably sell the other one so I can buy some cool stuff.
I GOT ANOTHER FISH!! I got this banggai cardinalfish off the same friend that sold me the blenny. Banggai was free though, he's trying to shut down his tank. I'm not sure if this guy will be a permanent inhabitant, but I'll definitely have cardinalfish in this tank.
I'm torn between
A. Adding another banggai cardinal(tank size might be a problem here)
B. Selling the banggai and getting a few threadfin/longspine cardinalfish
C. Selling the banggai and getting a few Yellow striped cardinalfish
What do you all think of that?
Anyways here's what you all came for, THE PICS. :)

Oh yeah, I thought I should adress this. I went to the fish store to go get some lettuce nudis, all gone :(
 
Of course. I can’t be bothered to sell it but some of it’s growing too fast. Also my pavona sheds scales. @fishguy242 has one of those.
 
Update: I'm an awful plumber!! :grinning-face-with-sweat:
I checked my installation job on the pump's tubing and It's slowly leaking because I cut the tubes too short! Luckily I have spare tubing lying around, hopefully I don't mess it up again. Too lazy to take pictures right now :sleeping-face:
 
Fixing the plumbing, that ended up not having anything wrong with it in the first place :grimacing-face: I thought it was leaking, really it was just wet because I had shut off the pump earlier so some pipes still had water draining off them, new pipes can't hurt I guess :rolleyes:
Currently fighting gha, just pulled this much out today, this stuffs really got me down, but I think I'm starting to see the light.
