never feel bad about being in the hospital :/ some things in life you cant control. the only thing I left behind was the bucket of rock, but I have plenty already I wasnt to concerned with that.

But your more then welcome to come by and have a look.

I am extremely happy with this tank, as its built like one.

Skimmer seems to be working well on top of that, after jdigital borrowed it and said there was some excessive noise, I stole the silencer from my coralife super skimmer, and its dead silent. My computer case puts out more noise then my aquarium now.

Hmmm temp 80.7 and climbing and the heater is on. I see by your graphs that your temp has never been that high before. Heater stuck? Man i love those web enabled reef controlers.

nah that thing is all messed up now with the port's i havent updated it with the updated plugin configuration. but the heaters are both off. ive been watching it carefully all day to see what happens as it can only be attributed to the lighting the skimmer or the return pump.

and I finally found the hose for my ato :O now i just gotta figure out how to wire this thing up,

well, crud. intresting day at the least.

Was bombing through my test's everything was looking good showing little nitrate's. Then the ammonia test showed me what I might be expecting, readings of ammonia.

Did a 15 gallon water change, with another batch of 15 brewing for tommorow. Yay for upgrade cycle's.

note to self, get a seachem ammonia tag for next time i upgrade.

so all I can really do is change water as fast as I can make it. Put the carbon into a reactor instead of the sock now.

Now reading a zero or close to zero reading on ammonia and nitrate is still well within the yellow. So crisis adverted for the time being.

Did some more aquascaping today, will post a picture tommorow before i water change.


On a second note, got my moon light controller in on friday, and took awhile to decide how to mount the led's, turns out the rare earth magnets I bought awhile back are coming in handy yet again. A bit of super glue and a rare earth works pretty good on my conduit bar light rack.

Just my luck however the moon is at 0 % on the lunar scale.
