Well I have some stuff I wanna accomplish today but we're at the doctor's office for my son's annual checkup and then we're likely having lunch with my parents. Gotta get a new battery for the camper and check the tires, then get stuff ready for camping in a couple of weekends. Then we've got our church group get together tonight. Maybe tomorrow I'll set up the dosing chambers.

I dunno. I also need to grab a Nem or 2 and see what they'll give me for trade at the LFS.

We'll see what I get done.

Well, I was gonna go Betta with the Tenecor but I kinda hinted at a Nem tank and my wife didn't argue.

Too late for her to change her mind now. :face-with-tears-of-joy:
 
Noopsyche Mini (old 65 watt, not newer 75 watt). I'm probably going to have to raise the white.
 
Got up to 90 in the house today - ice packs, surface agitation, and fans blowing across the tank and we stayed under 84. Hot for sure but nothing looks severely agitated. Everything is out swimming normal, corals have decent PE.

Replaced the capacitor and greased the condenser fan bearing. Seems to be running for now. I'll probably order a new condenser fan tomorrow if it runs good tonight.

We got this!
 
I ordered some LED strip lights for inside the stand today. That should help some

I just ordered some yesterday too. I've never used LED strips before. I hope they are bright enough for the cabinet.

Should be. I'm just looking for some light when I open the cabinet so I can see what I'm plugging and unplugging.
