400 gallon project

[untamed]

A quick report on the performance of the wetneck: I'm very pleased. The wetneck is keeping the throat of the skimmer clean, so I will only have to remove the top of the skimmer every month or two now. I would say that the volume of skim has tripled, but that the skim is less dark than before. Basically, I'm skimming much wetter than before.

Nitrates measured "0" the other day, so either the skimmer is working or 6ml/day of vodka/vinegar/sugar combo. Either way, something is good.

Breaking the cardinal rule of "clean tank before photographing...." Here is how things look at the moment.


A few fish hit 2 year anniversary in the past weeks. Here's some shots of a couple of birthday boys, along with the newest fish.."Rusty", who arrived in November.
