Interim update: I had this at hand and it was able to remove a decent amount of water.

"We" had a little accident when performing a water change for the nano tank, and the small sump got too much water and soaked the carpet around it. Any best practice on what to do with the carpet to minimize the damage? Carpet is old so not a big problem but I would like to not need to replace...

After more than a month in Kenny’s / @under_water_ninja care, I picked up the Yellow Tang. Thanks so much again for doing this, Kenny! It will be on me now to maintain his healthy levels and after a few days, it is not clear if I will be successful, as eating in my tank continues to be a...

So this (big) guy has only shown itself recently. I assume I should get it out ASAP?

Easier to get to for sure. Not sure if this is the best place to go with a family though?

Yes, this is what prevented us from going so far. Unfotunately, being limited to school holidays, there are not many options avoiding the crowds. When we lived in Singapore, we spent each Christmas at various tropical islands and my sons would like to do this again (note: we are not fans of snow).

7-10 days, not less than 6 days if possible. This is a good question. Staying on one island (or if 10 days, changing to max one other) would probably be our preference (keeping it simple). We would not mind hiking.

(Inspired by another post earlier) We moved to the Bay Area in 2022 (again) and have never been to Hawaii. Since we have (hopefully) some celebrations this year, we would like to make it work around 'Christmas' time (on or after December 20), for a family of 4. The last few years were a...

The majority calls for a closed loop. Main arguments are that it is already set up for this, and you have Eric. Maybe it needs a proper pro and con list :). But just pushing to get the tank set up is not a strong argument, as these things are meant to last.

Oh, I thought you had more?

I am planning to move this LCH Hybrid Blue Zing colony which grew over the past 9 months from a small frag and is now getting close to various sorrounding corals. While I have collected various corals over the past several months and kept them in the frag tank, I am far behind my...

How do you know?

How do you like the the controller board? I have most of Matt’s stuff and was looking at that the other day. Great setup overall.

Looks like you have enough to put into this new tank. Consolidating tanks might save you a ton of time once done.

Glad you like them :). Your pictures are great looking.
