    Built majority of a canopy. 18 Gal water change, vacuumed detritus from fuge that had built up. Last but not least, found a watchman goby I thought died after I got him. I could have very well have gave him away with some chaeto that I unloaded today. He was hiding in one of the few rocks I had back there. I bought him about a month ago. He went over the overflow, thru a Maggie muffler thru wall into a sock, then over the last glass divider into the sump where he has been living in the dungeon ever since! Until today! Haha

    Yeah he is! He's holding up in a quiet corner for now. We've made eye contact (totally platonic) and he didn't get skittish and swim away. So I think he'll be a great addition!

    I was cleaning my friends 90g and in the overflow i saw a fish, it was a mystery wrasse that has been living in there for a year and a half. We moved the tank before and didn't see him, now he is fat and the boss of the tank.

    ITs been a busy few day's for me..
    Dec 25, Installed new Dimmable Led lighting (blue led's at 55% Whites green and reds at 50%)
    Dec 26, Flat worm exit (Salifert) Bombed my tank followed by new carbon.

    Dec 29, Removed some rock with problem Slime algae and gave it a good tooth brushing refreshed carbon and added Nitrate, Nitrite and amonia remover. along with a 5 gal water change. Removed power heads and return pump gave them a good once over and scrub down.. Plugged it all back in and crossed fingers everything wil survive the stress.. Also put in tank a new 10 plug ceramic frag rack. And placed frags in new rack.

    Wow! That's crazy awesome!
    Forgive the pun, but the mystery was over once you found him...

    Bought a light for my fuge, and some chaeto! Now my pods will have a place to do the hanky panky!
