It is back up but it has never been this far along before. There was noting in it when the hurricane hit - thank goodness.

FTS - 4-21-‘23

I got a shipment of fish in from Diver’s Den this morning. The fish population is now up to 5!
Today I got a Hippo Tang, a Two Spot Bristletooth Tang and a Yellow Fin Flasher Wrasse.

Corals and clams are doing fine so far.

Pic from one end, next to my recliner. A little more activity now with a few fish.

I got the UV installed as a closed loop, using the two holes drilled in the back meant for returns. I have the Sea Swirls, so I just had them plugged. Would kung pretty well. I still have to arrange the wires a bit better.

After it being on for about a day and a half at about 500 gph, the water is crystal clear. It is raising the temp about 1.5°, so time to hook up some fans and put my old chiller in line in case the temp gets crazy and I am not home. I already had the chiller from when I was running MH lights on the 140.

Anyway, there is always something to do on a reef tank.

Thanks. Some things are growing quickly and some not so much. There are softies, SPS & LPS in the tank.

Good morning! The tank is beautiful! Sorry I can't stay long, the job is very demanding and they expect me to be there on time. I have to put on my supervisor costume.

Good morning! Thanks, finally starting to look like a reef tank. Waiting on a few more fish coming next week.

Sounds like you are really busy. When you get the chance, it would be nice if you could bring us all up to date on things. Have a good day!
