not much man just trying to reef , i always want to post pics. just idk.

setup a algae scrubber sometime back. its helped remove a bunch of over growing hair algae. like that one is this pic, this one is not my nor is the image mine. just google it and looks like the first one i made.

however , it would spray water everywhere from time to time. i would find water on the floor and wasnt happy.
i orders a dog food container from ebay for 20.00, drilled some holes added a couple bulkheads, mesh and some pvc parts.
