Carpet ID?

It doesn't look as bad as I thought it was going too. Sure, it is a heck of a lot smaller, but still seems to be in fairly good shape -- given what it has gone through (( no pun intended ))

I would be more concerned that it is on the back wall, and moved in the first place -- need to find out what is causing that.

FLOW?
I think I need to change it around drastically. SPS are doing great, maybe just too constant(no wavemaker).
Im gonna try a V in the middle with 2 K4(blowing to front pane), a modded MJ on one end and 1400 GPH Koralia type on the other, blowing across. This leaves 2 returns on a SCWD+educator, faced at the front pane,
Gotta be 5400 GPH outta the PH's(when cleaned), and prolly about 1200-1500 GPH outta each educator every 15 seconds or so(SCWD/alternating).
This tank has got atleast 50x turnover in flow(125g tank).
Anyway mouth has been fairly tight, even puckering at times, and hes stretching a bit now. But hes also roaming in a circle, and still on the glass.
No screening for the PH's yet, and I had to shut 1 off (original shredder) again this morning, as he was about 1" away.
Any ideas on screen? Maybe fiberglass windowscreen?

Decrease in size can always recover. Does he seem healthy without deflating? that is the question. Good luck

This guy has never deflated. He wasn't even deflated while in the powerhead? Hes rebounding nicely.
I'll get him back, if I can find a sweet spot for him, off the glass.
Thanks for all the "best o lucks".

Update.

This fella is still kickin. Moved back to the rockwork, hasen't grown much, but its still alive and kickin. Still not looking great, but its definatly healed. I've been feeding very sparsly, but gonna kick it up a couple of notches, due to its placement(about a month now).

Gotta be 6 months now(in tank). Just afraid to post, "the post jinx" might get me =). Keep on keepin on with those Gigs.
