Sorry, I can relate. I pulled a quad muscle on Sunday just trying to stop a NEARBY soccer ball at my sons game. It was a ridiculous injury considering the lack of movement that caused it. :face-with-rolling-eyes::face-with-rolling-eyes::face-with-rolling-eyes:. I hope your shoulder gets to feeling better soon, especially for your vacation.

Wow! Those are some gorgeous photos!!
Yeah "helping" lift the monstrosity of an aquarium last weekend nothing. Fanning out the top sheet and all hell breaks loose.

Hope you feel better soon!!
Thank you.It had gotten much better since the steroids started kicking in. It's definitely the sciatica I got some zingers just sitting on the couch. I am calling the chiro tomorrow and hoping the Dr gives me a refill on the steroids to take with me. The pack I had were prescribed over a year ago. I hate taking anything but I need to be able to move to go dive.

Thanks for the well wishes. Thursay I was able to get a virtual (phone call) with a Dr and he sent in the steroid pack and some muscle relaxers. Then saw the Chiro. All is much better now. I did freak out a bit initially. Haven't had pain like that in as long as I can remember. Called off job2 Friday went in yesterday. All is good this am.
Already did a water change on the fresh tank. Did one on the 180 and office tank Wednesday so the tanks are set. Just have to top off the top offs before we leave.
Heading out to run some errands if any stores are open. Then its time to pack. Go through all my dive toys and make sure I have everything.
@MrsBugmaster I do have a camera and I attempt to take pictures. So I will be sharing when I get back for sure. Do you all want to see fish, corals, or both?

Houston we have a problem. Sump- edit may be - leaking.
Left back corner where drain come in is all wet. May be an overflow issue and not a leak. Pulled socks and dried out area with towels. Don't see any air bubbles coming into return are and no active water displacement when all gizmos are off.
May have over reacted yet again.

Monitoring will let sir running on 50% then see if where the tool gets damp. Also fully understanding the if it is a leak it may notbe located here and this may just be the lowest point. But I an almost 95% sure I was overflow. I turned up the the return pump Wednesday and I think it was too much and it started "flushing". Which caused the return to purge that along with the filter socks I forgot to chang may have caused the issue.
