Ordered my first Micromuss as well as an army of snails and an urchin to fight my hair algae problem.

Thinking the Giesemann Stellar would be a great update to my lighting system. Two ai primes plus the stellar will raise the PAR and boost my SPS growth and the spread of the bulbs should help get rid of some of the weird growth patterns and shadowed spots.

Ceva and the clowns were photogenic today.

The new long nose hawkfish is eating well so I brought him out quarantine today. He is enjoying his new home.

Built a shade for the refugium light today. Loving the new rotery tool! 3D printing is cool but a lot of the time plastic objects can be upcycled by cutting them cut into shape. Hopefully now there will be less nuisance algae in the sump.

After buying a real Rhodactis I believe this to be a Ricordea.

No more salty floors next to the tank thanks to RoboMop!

After two hours of trying to set it up, it was with this reddit comment that it finally worked.

Had to enable full location permission on ios device. 🤷

Demoscene always amazes me. One day I’d like to try it.

Got my results back.

Calcium was high which I knew about and was accidental, Goal 420 ppm Ca.
Potassium was low.
Iodine was low.

Started using RedSea trace elements to correct the values. It has only been a few days of correcting and already my montipora is showing new polyps which it’s hasn’t before!

I want a Pocket C.H.I.P now! Could be of great use in my upcoming aquarium controller project.

Sending in my first ICP test today.

Love the #rust unix built in CLI tool replacements. Today I discovered procs, https://github.com/dalance/procs. The built in search is nice because it hides the search process which I always found annoying when grepping ps aux.
