No worries- glad to help. Fire away with any Q’s and Ill help if I canNice looking workspace you have there! And thank you for clarifying the part about pods staying alive during TTM for me.

Yeah- the peroxide dip looks legit. Humblefish has done this a bunch since March/April I believe abd has had great success.I love the cabinets for stands. That looks really nice.
I knew you knew what I was talking about regarding the pods. I thought Mr. Smith possibly had the wrong impression about this hybrid method.
So you feel pretty good about the peroxide dip vs. the formalin dip? I did both. I read a study somewhere that stated formalin causes all parasites to fall off which seems too broad of a statement. But formalin dips that could cause almost all parasites to fall off, especially in the gills, seems like a solid idea. So I may do that again. The Safety Stop products seem like a good idea in combination with this HYBRID TTM.
If I do the cabinets on either end, I’ll have space for a 4 foot under bench using cinderblocks and plywood under the main bench. Thinking several 5, 10g for CUC qt, molly acclimation. Maybe reinstate 20g coral QT abd add a 10sump for it
The problem with showing her that formula is that she’s Stanford PhD trained... she’ll add the variable:You can never have too many tanks, I always say. In fact, the more the merrier!
The mathematical formula for the # of aquariums any one person can own is n+1, where 'n' variable is the # of tanks you currently own. Problem solved. When you show your significant other the formula, it's hard to argue with the math. Math is complicated, you just trust the formulas!

Lids on 2/3 of the 10g with top off needed 2 times a week, a gravity fed float valve on the coral QT (although I suspect it is sticky abs not consistent) since it has egg crate lid for the light and therefore has higher evap rate, and an apex dual sensor ATO on the 20g.How are you maintaining salinity in your QT or observation tanks? Do you have lids to prevent evaporation?
If you eBay ‘coffee machine float valve’ you’ll find a smaller better float valve for it. I had this left over from my mixing station, since it didn’t come with a ferrule and brs didn’t send a replacement. It’s 3/8” and I had to force some tubing on thereThanks for sharing the photos! I'm going to borrow the gravity fed ATO idea for future use. Cheers!
........fir more fish stuff.
The space dedicated to the fish now officially exceeds mine and Katie’s first California apartment.That extra countertop space looks ideal. One of the most interesting parts of this hobby, to me, is the fish room! Where all the magic happens.
Looks awesome.Lol!!!
Me too! I have a weird thing for fish rooms. I love a neat and tidy fishroom, and I LOVE the frankensteins monster fishrooms such as @ca1ore fishroom.That extra countertop space looks ideal. One of the most interesting parts of this hobby, to me, is the fish room! Where all the magic happens.
