Why was it bumpy? Or just rough with that beautiful Northwest sky!
More accurately another "rough" *wink* day. Rough cuz I may have gotten a slight sun burn and couldn't get a better shot of the view.

Updated update.
We've had a light for a while. I started with a kessils, but now it's the meridian I got with a GC.
It's great! Not a lot of light spill, bright, easy to set a spectrum I like, modest shimmer, and with what it costs, I don't have to worry about my wallet being too thick and ruining my pants.

Cord control is still needed...
The tank is a 40b, with about 60# of sand and a bunch of rock. Yet unfiltered, but when I unpack the 3d printer I will make away to hide the skimmer and set up the fluval can as a cryptic fuge. If I need more, I'll figure it out later.
Stocking:
4x chalk bass
1 Smith's blenny
1 bicolor blenny
1 platinum clownfish
1 possum wrasse
1 springer damsel
2 (paired) watchman goby's
1 linkia? Starfish
1 coral banded shrimp
Bumblebee snails
Maybe hermits

Some Red ogo.
4x Mangroves
1 rose BTA
1 csb
1 fiji acro
Duncan
trumpet coral
Cyphastrea
2 chalices
Another lps I forget the name of.

Redsea ato
Hydros controller for temp and ph at the moment; hoping to build out more.
Kamoar dosers for 2 part
Heater exists
Flow is:
1 Nero 3
1 sicce something with the same flow rate as the Nero (thanks Becky)
1 jebao beast moving maybe 5k gph on its lowest setting (thanks Becky)
Bunch of Kasa Smart plugs

And that is the latest for the tank.

You're right. Just as soon as I think I can sneak an 8 gallon aio in the house. He'll have it.
You don't sneak it in...

You grab the box, march right inside with the tank and proclaim loudly and firmly "I am bringing this inside and setting it up and there's not a thing you're going to do about it!"

I recommend doing that when your wife isn't home though.

You think she'll believe the toddler did it on his own?
