Busy night last night!! Wasn't feeling well all day, so I ended up napping on the couch off and on for most of the day... and then of course, couldn't sleep last night. Took the opportunity to get a few things completed.

First, I hooked up my Moon Light Controller for the RKE. I had to run about 20' of extension wire for each pod as my controller is in the fish room which is about 25 feet from the tank. 4 lunar blue LED pods strategically placed to shine over the good areas. Looks amazing when they're on. I'll try to snap a pic or 2 tonight with them on... hopefully it turns out ok.

Then, I mixed up 4 gallons of Calcium Chloride, Soda Ash, and Magnesium Sulfate/Chloride. I couldn't remember which dosing pump I used for each, so I set up the pumps to pull water from the sump and just return it back in. Hopefully this will flush it well enough that I don't end up with any solids forming and plugging.

I then FINALLY hooked up the tunze ATO to my RO reservoir. All I need now is a level switch of some sort fro the reservoir.

And last, but certainly not least... I cleaned up after 'hurricane upgrade' that hit my basement while all of this was happening. YIKES!!! Can't believe that my wife didn't kill me in the mean time!
