Hello,
I was able to finally get my tank looking a little better and I love my file fish. Now I may actually buy a rock with some aptasia just so he wants to keep eating them since they are totally gone.
I also was finally able to break free the dead pieces of my old coral which helped a lot. Now I’m still increasing my cuc and have a little gha but hoping that goes back down with less light and the fact I have cut feeding by half. The fish graze a lot more so that’s helping.
I also made some new vases or pitchers which haven’t been fired yet. Next week trying to catch up on glazing I’m only 20 behind lol. Here I kinda became creative, i through a large vase ( was 14 tall), and shaped it like a pitcher. Then cut the top and the back half became the handle and the front the spout (which I cut about 3-4 inches off. I don’t have a new pic of the finished drying piece but cleaned the spout and hand marks up (looks like it was before, then made the handle more round and shaped the edges, smoother them out etc. could be a show piece and functional if I did the portions right, (pretty sure I did), but it’s the first one so we will see.
