what did you guys did or buy for your tank today

Did a water change thee other day, scrap the algae off the front and side glass,,, boy what a difference, tank look good...how often u guys do a water change. ?

it kinda depends . but it averages out at 40 gallons every two weeks. Sometimes more or less depending on Nutrient levels when i test .If I Scrape the glass down and clean everything up in the tank i will Do a 40 gallon water change but this does not happen but a few times a year. I think smaller water changes more often is better...

Just hooked up an external junction box to control my GFO reactor pump and skimmer... Makes cleaning a snap, no more unplugging just hit the switch.

Also just ordered an AquaCool cooling fan, i'm going to give it a try.

(Sadly can't take them home as I got them at work. They are chemical resistant hammer resistant gloves)
 
Well I was busy this weekend...

Bought a Reef Octopus Regal 300SSS to replace the DCS300 I dropped. Going to try to fix the DCS300 and use it on our frag tank.

Bought two Jebao DC4000s for our frag tank.
Bought two Jebao RW-15s for our frag tank.
Bought a 48-60" Orbit Marine LED to test on the frag tank.
Bought 80lbs of Seaflor Special Grade Sand for the frag tank.
 
I added this marine Beta today. I took his picture while I was acclimating him because now that he is in my tank, I doubt I will ever see the entire fish again as they are hiders.
