Happy to hear it!
Ok, this is weird. @Robin Haselden please explain...I went to walk the dog. Typed out my post. Came back inside, the return is on and working again...still ordering a new one though, I know it’s old enough to be in a museum!

I got this tank secondhand, so I knew I would have to replace things if I wanted to keep it long term. This was meant to be my trial run, but I fell in love with the simplicity.

I just haven’t gotten any fish that I didn’t see stay in the tanks for at least a week at the LFS first. Take them home, quarantine them for about 45 minutes in the plastic bag, then scoop them out by hand. Teaches them who’s boss!

Return pump went out but came back? Model, age?

Other than my reef that’s the only fish I have :) only one fancy guy though. Mr. Fluffy Pants. Or MFP, or Mr. Fluff.

all the others are pallifinas, a paternal mouthbrooding betta in the unimaculata complex of bettas from Kalimantan, Borneo.
