I’m not really surprised. I'm just a small fish in a big ocean.

You still can. It’s not too late :biggrin: Also, Space Invader Pectina.

Sadly, it's too large to frag now.

:cry:

Greetings from Campbell River. Nice to see it still running and with halides and its been awhile. regards Ken

Hey ya! To be honest, I'm kinda surprised that it is still running.

So ya, the Halide fixture is still the original Maristar Halide+T5 combo fixture from day one. It has served me well, but so old skool. Unfortunately, it is getting increasingly difficult and more expensive to replace the bulbs on it. As a result, I am in the process of formulating a plan to replace the fixture.

Yesterday I decided to clean out my overflow box. I don’t think I’ve touched it in over two years. That was a mistake. It was completely filled with tube worms. And not the soft skin feather dusters either. The ones that make the hard calcium tubes. Nasty.

Oh man… how did they not disrupt the drains and overflow water amount! Nasty looking for sure. Now I better take a look into my overflow…

Ya I was surprised it didn’t completely clog up. There are 3 overflow drains and one of them was practically clogged. The other two took over I guess. It’s very satisfying to see a clean overflow box again.

Ugh, I need to do this too. I’ve been avoiding it by refusing to look back there.

Ya that’s definitely how I ended up with that mess. I pretended that it didn’t exist :lol:
