Yeah I'm not even running mesh. This is the stock SWC pinwheel. It was baffling and just a little irritating.

That's not good news I was thinking of swapping over to pinwheels

Another day in reef aquarium paradise eh Sorry to hear but sorta glad to hear when it's not just me who has days like this ... day after day .. after day .. after day.

That skimmer is too new to be giving startup issues? Is the magnet perfectly cylindrical? Everytime I've had a pump with startup issues that wasn't on account of a mesh-mod, I think a swollen magnet was eventually found to be the cause. Very vexatious and I hope that's not the explanation! But might be worth checking next time you open the pump up.

Lance we'll have to set you up sometime. Maybe not when it's minus a billion outside over here though. Ugh. But if you're ever out here drop me a line and we can do some gorgonian haircuts.

Aw. I meant it in a brother-in-arms kind of way? Bother. Cinders and ashes!

Tomorrow will be better?

I don't shoot a FTS too often so thought I better take a few minutes to take another stab.

Looking good Brett. Nice growth too.
What is the long, green, stick-thingy on the left side of the tank?

The Coral Master himself hooked me up the other day so I snapped some pics:

Lobsterboy John also gave me some freebies a while ago (thanks John!). They're all doing pretty well except the faded tabling yellow/green guy and the hot pink prostrata which I converted into a brown coral pretty fast. I tossed it way up high and I think I shocked it. It's a terrible shot too but if you can believe it that's actually it coloring up again very slowly lol.
