Finished the gravity filter! It ships today. Still have no idea what to price it at... similar items are going for much more... My wife always says to just double the price from what I think it should be...
already thought of a way to make it way easier to load the floss.
That's kinda purdy!

that but turn it 90 degrees would be just what I need to replace the socks.

I'm coming up with 5 more sizes!

There will be steep cronies discounts available ;) ... once I make sure it works.

cuz there's no way I can afford what it's listed at.
I'd probably print one for myself but I don't want to do the tech end (too much learning).

Have been pretty hands off with the tanks for the past while for better or worse.
Just managed to spend some time.... added the pump for the frag tank and cleaned the gyre again.
Took down the ReefBreeder and put in the second XR15 I won from the RIPTIDE event. DIY'd a custom mount for them with stuff I had laying about. Also put my coral swap sign up... its printed with UV reactive filament and has blue light strips along it so the letters glow. Frees up a lot of space having it hung somewhere.
I procrastinated feeding Timmy till the afternoon the other day and he ripped an encrusted acro that was doing great off the rock. He must've rubbed it around the torch because it was mostly STN when I saw it... Couldn't have been down more then a few hours...

Okay. This i actually really like vs my bulky brs canister....... pita.
Yes! I installed one of those big canisters and only saw improvement in my ph for a few weeks. When I uninstalled it I found out it had stopped working because my bubble trap had an air leak. Too many parts. These caps are so straightforward… no messing about.

whatever happened with the amazing tank sale and you upgrading?
After careful deliberation with my wife, we determined it wasn’t the right time or the right tank. ;)

Following! Gotta get through 123 pages before I start asking questions! Lol
Try and keep all questions reef related. We have a hard time figuring Sam out most of the time ourselves.
