Did a little custom fabricating this morning!
Without the top on the tank, the lid for the filter box was looking a little ridiculous so I made a flat cover from tinted Lexan.

The pins in the four corners keep it from sliding around. They are screwed into the Lexan and the parts that stick out through the bottom fit against the corners. It’s completely lift off.

Uv sterilizer is good for diatoms...

I’ve been looking for one that is super compact that would fit into chamber #2 of the Evo. This is not really a UV sterilizer as it doesn’t have any kind of slow dwell time but it should help a little. I’m not really having a diatom problem on a regular basis but I think if I run this light for about 1-2 hours a day, it may help.
I guess I’ll be the “Evo UV test subject”!

So many horror stories about heater failure these days. I was talking to the guy at the LFS and he asked if I had a controller. When I said “not yet”, he just shook his head.
Ordered an Inkbird while my corals were acclimating.

Did a little playing around with my stand today. It was looking a little boring so I blacked some of it out with, wait for it, self stick carpeted tiles.

Big ole sheet of 50 micron polishing pad showed up today. 2’x3’, should last me a grey long time considering the size of the pieces I have to cut it into.
My water is crystal clear but I want it even clearer. LOL!
