So, this afternoon I cleaned 3, 2" PVC elbows put them in, and they float... Working on finding weights while dinner cooks lol..

Weird - I've never seen PVC fittings float, are they the white ones?

Black, same as @Mhamilton0911. It's DWV pipe (drain, waste, vent). Lighter than standard Sch 40 pipe, which I didn't think about when I bought it :grinning-face-with-sweat:

Sharing my notes from today, as I take a break from fishing for the blenny, welcome any thoughts.

All fish that passed went full cloudy eyes at the end. You can see in the pic there's like a mucus protruding from the eye area on the blenny, only one infected so far, just noticed this AM. Not exciting.

2 fish remain in QT, both have been spending a lot of time in the corners, the clown some listing also but has energy still and comes out to swim on occasion. He does not have cloudy eyes, but has had some stringy substance hanging from him on occasion (can see in the vid), but not shortly after. Rooting for this guy.


In the DT, wrasse, YWG and pistol shrimp are active and eating as I post this.
