Thanks Shelley

Got tied up yesterday and did nothing

Just completed my first WC
I did 15% and now the skimmer is functioning normally again. I got a great tip from Kenny. It looks like either some leftover glueing guck, or the new sand, or both was/were the issue
I'm hoping my pH will come back up now as it dropped from 8.13 to 8.0 after I turned the skimmer off. I'm not worried about it right now, just making an observation

I split the chaeto into 2 balls - one on each side of the overflow and both are tumbling nicely

After this post I'm going to get the GFO running
I'll probably leave the carbon reactor empty for now

The QT is functioning nicely;
No leaks, stable Sg temp etc

I'm going to try to get the wife to J&L tomorrow to see what peaks her interest
