Small Victories: What Was Yours Today?

There's enough bad things going on with our tanks, let's focus on the good! What small (or big) victory did you have today?

Today I noticed some acros extending their polyps out again, and my Emporer angel is healing up from flukes.
I'll take it!

I didn't have to "fish" anything up off the floor (sorry, couldn't resist).

My tailspot blenny just found a new favorite spot under my monti cap. Right up front

My first two fish in quarantine (two clowns) started eating this morning

Anyone have anything good going on? Or is it all doom and gloom?
Today I noticed the flukes are seemingly gone from the fowlr tank. Been doing hypo salinity (1.012 sg) and prazipro.

I saw only one aptasia today and it got the wrath of god. Fire and brimstone on its tail!

My victory today was removing my pumps (return, media reactor, and skimmer) and soaking them in some citric acid to give them a good cleaning.

Not glamorous but like a good calf exercise in the gym. You cant skip it.

I caught my diamond goby. Finally. No more burying my corals and spiking my nutrients

My chalk bass is starting to get a bit braver and come out of his cave a bit. Been hiding ever since I placed him in the main tank from quarantine.

I made my diy sump before realizing skimmers were larger than their name dimensions so messed up the baffle spacing so had no good skimmer options for the system. Finally pulled the plug on buying a skimmer anyway planning to redo the sump with it actually there so I could get it right, then found if I rotated it diagonally it fit in the intake chamber by this much —-> <—-, scooting underneath the filter sock holder on one side.

Small wins.
