I enjoy following your journal (and your enjoyment of your tank). Keep it up! Also in East Bay, east of tunnel.

Looks terrific! No sand or rock? What do you feed your blenny? Do you have a skimmer in the equipment area? Ceramic media? What type of flow/pumps do you have? Detritus does not build up? How to cool to look at and work on an awesome looking tank like that!

Thanks. This setup is only for a few days at a camp, but will likely find a home in our school afterward. Question: what water do you use in basic FW tank? I see crazy different info online and haven’t had time to visit FW LFS yet. I can easily produce RODI or water just after sediment and 2...

Need some advice if possible: Thought I was set but plans have changed. Last week after posting here I found out a former student is moving and a parent was happy for me to take their two small running freshwater tanks off their hands. So I went today to pick up as arranged to find both parents...

Just wow! Your corals and fish look incredible. I see some acro tips right at the water surface. Have any started growing sideways or merging up there?

Update on Friday how your tank inhabitants look. What a stressful situation.

You, sir, do not disappoint! (And that is some good info BTW. Gotta check some endcaps.) Until now I did not realize how nice it is to not have those bulky ballasts! If I catch myself complaining about LED light cables I will remember that.

Umm, I think I have quite a few PC lamps in my classroom storage! Yep. When starting up there I couldn’t afford expensive LED and didn’t trust cheapo ones or MH. I wonder if they are straight pin or square pin? (Waiting for @Kensington Reefer’s “old school” comment…)

Trying to combat algae that has fully taken over. (In addition to the alien thing, of course.)

I would love a Mag 7 please.

Welcome! Looking forward to seeing pics of your tank and hearing what you find cool so far.

That is incredible - the envy of all your kids' friends, I'm sure!

Thanks a lot for the info - I will check out that journal! Everything you said is what I have and I had also tried that Y-return locline and adjusting ATO sensor. I now suspect the (neglected) media rack needs my attention. Ooh.

He didn’t get back to me about details yet. Dates sound like around July 27-31, so a week max.

Tank looks good! Some equipment questions for you @MichaelB …Tried to find it in your older posts but couldn’t. You ran a Sicce 1.5 in a Biocube? How was it? I think I see a RFG, too. What skimmer do you use? Is it in first chamber, then InTank media rack in second? I have a BTA/clownfish BC and...

Haha! That’s what piqued my interest, too. I run two EVs and a Remora. Do you have the auto waste collector controlled by ping pong ball? I love that thing.

Tank looks great! If your clowns would like a green BTA I have a ton! Funny that they seem content with their protected corner.

Thank you for the offer but more than I can deal with for a week-long setup. It would make quite the impression, though!

Only a few days. I think my friend will be there every day to do it. Seems weird to quickly set up a temp tank but I can see his wish to have it there.
