ESHOPPS Mariner 70 Build

Ok, in all it's ugliness:

This is a vast improvement from where it was prior to the water change and GHA removal but I stirred up a bunch of junk. Getting ready to resnow the tank.
I think this might be the first FTS I've seen of your tank. I like it, looks great.

Post #1 has multiple FTS, just no real recent pictures.
 
Sorry all. I've been up north for my brother-in-law's elk hunt. Back now. Some tank maintenance will be done. I've got water mixing and I need to test parameters. Water change will likely be tonight or tomorrow. Test tomorrow or Saturday.

I lost my Starry Blenny last week before I left. He was old. Probably around 8" long. He was one of the original fish in my old 65 gallon from around 7 or 8 years ago. He was already almost 6" when I got him so not a young fish at that time. He had a good run. Trying to decide what to replace him with. Probably a Lawnmower since they stay a little smaller. I already have a Molly Miller in there.
 
Sorry to hear about the starry. We have one in the wife's tank and its very cute!

I had got a lawnmower for my tank, but my Tang was harassing it on and off. Woke up one morning and couldn't find it anymore so assuming he perished and got cleaned up real quick by my cleanup crew.

Wasn't on the ground, and haven't seen it in any of the back compartments either.
 
Was the elk hunt successful though? That is an important piece of info!
He got two shots but nothing in the freezer yet. He's up there with his brother today and his dad and sister and her husband are heading back up tomorrow. He's got this weekend and next week to get it done. We've seen elk every day and they're bulging and answering calls so he's got a good chance since he's willing to put the work in and has the time.

Very nice, best of luck to him!
 
I didn't update the other day BUT I added 3 small turbos, a fighting conch, and 2 cups of Kona Draft (phyto and copepod blend) on Friday.

Today I did a water change as well and plucked a bunch of algae. Also harvested some GHA and Bubble Algae from the ATS.
 
Really nice setup! What do you think of the Noopsyche K7 V3 140watt? I am in the planning phase of a larger setup and am trying to talk myself into this route over radions.

Googled Kona Draft to see what that is.

JEALOUS of that pricing (if Google AI can be trusted 😁) . Only LFS really nearby (others are 2-3 hour round trip just in the car) sells phyto for $15 for 8 oz. I find myself buying most stuff online at this point cause of the insane pricing they do on some stuff, knowing they have the market cornered.

I could go to ARC but Buffalo is a hike and not something I can just decide to stop out to.
