Glad to see everything is looking up. I did not QT either but managed to escape disaster. I will be setting one up for future additions though for sure. My home office is in my basement specifically because that's where I was allowed to set up the aquarium. I love being down here able to watch it all day, though. That gigantic UV made me chuckle for sure, makes my small 15w hang on look like a chump.
Haha, yeah, I kinda went to war with whatever parasites dared to mess up my baby.
I'm seriously considering moving my office down there. Problem is that it's a little cool in the winter. The tank heater handles it fine, but I'd need a blanket. (Plus I ran the google fiber hardline to my upstairs office and I like that speed!)
