Intro and question/advice

Thanks, everyone for the help!
I'm excited to be part of this forum!
I just went to the tank and noticed that all the hammers are doing great!II think he was just stressed out.

I removed the worm :) from the hammer. He's a little angry now, but it started to open up again.

Also, I've included some pics of the tank.
The top that covers the back chamber I built myself with black acrylic, so all in nicely hidden from visitors.

In the back I built a little contraption that helps me with the water changes (when I don't have to wash my sand) It's a USB vertical pump connected to a black RO tube attached to a quick-connect shut-off valve to prevent leaks. The USB I have it connected to smart plug and I have small pump to pump the clean water back into the tank with a small non-return valve - this helps a ton with the maintenance of the tank.

Thanks again and enjoy the pictures.
