I've been doing a lot of weekend out of towns and I guess my tank has been neglected. Did a water change today and all my corals perked up. Gotta remember to keep up on the water changes....

I know what you mean brother, mine is also getting neglected ever since I started school up.

Negative! I've been up camping/hunting for the past 5 weekends. I had scouting for 2 weekends, Men's Retreat with my church, and hunting for 2 weekends. Now I'm home for 3 weekends and then back up hunting for 2 more.

So I upgraded a little today. I added a sump to my 70. I haven't put it online yet, but I started getting all the plumbing set up. I picked up two VCA random flow generators for the return. Thanks @ReefStache for putting them in my crosshairs! Next update is going to be redoing the scape and then combining the AIO in with it. The 5 gallon is either going to be a small salt reef tank or freshwater shrimp tank on my desk at work.
;Playful A one sentence update to join another giveaway contest, luv it! I guess I'm not the only one now.;Hilarious!

For the record, I was up north elk hunting. Hard to do a tank build update 3 hours from home.

I added a six line wrasse! He's happy and fat but really doesn't like his picture taken. Sorry @Reefer Reboot no pictures, just words...
That's cool, I don't really care for pictures of myself either.

Well, I was cleaning the glass on my tank today and the stupid magnetic scraper fell off and fragged my rainbow Stylo for me twice. Then, I was cleaning in the 5 gallon and my hand fragged my red digitata... 
The joys of cleaning tanks. The good news is I have a couple of extra frags of each. If they survive and do good, maybe I can make a few bucks off of them...

Oh boy... I was over mixing some salt for a water change and caught a drip from the corner of my eye. Looks like my sump sprung a little leak. I had to turn off the sump, drain the return section, and resealed it. We'll check it out Saturday but I'm hopeful!

Good news! Sump is resealed and not leaking! Also, progress pics of my favias from @Joe Knows Reefs.

That's under a @noopsyche K7 Pro II 90 watt. Imagine how yours are going to do with the K7 V3!

I just got word on Instagram that I won a PristineRock $75 scape package. Perfect timing as I'm preparing to redo my rock scape pretty soon here.
