The LAST big upgrade

[michika]

Thanks guys.

There is actually a male and a female naso in the tank! They like to trick you though by only showing one of themselves at a time.

Mini update;
- bought a second Diablo Octopus skimmer for the system for redudancy purposes and so I can start feeding me.
- Put Kalk reactor online to help suppliment 2-part dosing. Reactor decided to form a leak and now needs repairs. But it has made quite a difference already in keeping my dKH levels even more stable and consistent.
- One naso died on Friday evening, no obvious signs of illness or stress.

Now we're just in the process of getting things ready for fall. I'm hoping to find some airtight rolling bins that I can use for bulk product storage under my water mixing station. I've successfully gone through all my fish stuff and cleaned out and organized what survived my annual purging. Good organization systems make all the difference in the world.

Both chugging along side by side.

Damn! That's some dark looking skimmate!

Those skimmers seem to be performing as promised.

Not Gonna lie, I have to say these are the best skimmers i have ever had.... the one on the right is after 3 days!!!

My tank woke me up at 3:45am this morning after having fallen asleep on the couch, the skimmers pronounced in a very oderous fashion that they required emptying.

As wonderful and excellent as these skimmers are, I am a bit concerned about what will happen come winter when I can't just throw open every window in the house to air our the foulness that is skimmate.

time to make a carbon filter to sit on top of your lid i guess.
