Today I tested my parameters. With the seahorses was curious to see what the phosphates and nitrates were. Also checked PH and Alk. Everything was good.
 
Cleaning gunk out of my skimmers and looking for Waldo the emerald crab. I see him about once a month.
 
Added a second light fixture, changed duration of fuge and display lights(had forgot to extend the fuge duration to overpower the dt). Looked at bugs, and made some more labels for equipment plugs..
 
Yesterday - painted the back of my display tank and also the sides and back of the fuge. Took a nitrate test and the pellets are slowly beginning to work. Went from 10 down to 5.

Today - feed the fish and changed to lighting schedule on the 2nd timer so that it comes on at 11am and goes off at 10 am. Also sent the max intensities of 10 on blue and 5 on white. This is for when I need to do something like feed the fish before work, or just need some light on the tank for a little bit. I seem to have the dumbest snails, and find myself righting one constantly.. Lol..
 
I did a WC, added a probiotic, reloaded the bb hatchery with eggs and enriched the hatched bb, all in anticipation of the baby seahorses' arrival.
 
I was good today at the fish store. Only purchased a new heater that I "needed"..

But, thanks to those guys, I got back some stolen property. My complete arsenal of test kits/checkers, they found for me and gave bask to me. Thinking off the top of my head, probably over 400.00 in testing equipment. So I'm grateful and feeling blessed..

Today was a good day..
 
Saturday moved all the house stuff and Sunday moved the tank, I never plan on moving that one, also did not lose any fish or coral.
 
Resurrected an old UPS and got a 12 volt power supply for my Apex. Also my jebao rws will plug into it.
