Okay, so as planned, I spent mostly all of Saturday morning continuing on my mission to rehabilitate my tank. On the agenda was another round of sand and rock cleaning, media reactor (GFO & Carbon) and doser repair/replacement, and salt and skimmer creep cleaning. All of this followed by a 50% (ish) water change.

This scene I'm sure is familiar to many hobbyists.

Buckets and towels and hoses, oh my!





Don't try this at home kids!

So anyway, that was Saturday. The tank cleared up within a few hours and here's what it looks like today.





Okay everybody, gather round. Time for a group photo.
