Chips Money Pit :)

So it's been a short wile since I added anything new to the thread/tank. But figured I'd upload some photos.

Newest addition in the Skims SM122, less them 24 hours old and just awaiting break in and foam to start building up.. :)
I also have to drill my sump, so it will fit in my cabinet, but for now it hangs out back so I can get to the collection cup.

Second picture is the Scooter Blenny or the wife named him Benny.. Anyone else have one of these? I purchased a bag of pods from reef cleaners and well added it to my fuge, but honestly did not see much in bag or fuge, a few things squirming, but that was about it, so then I went out and purchased a 16oz bottle of AlgaGen ReefPods Tisbe Live Aquacultured Copepods and put that in the tank on Wednesday. So not sure how long that will last the Blenny.

Third photo is of BlueSteel Growth. These were purchased awhile ago from Rich, sadly the other two that I purchased did not make it... Oh and not his fault at all, his stuff is great, my tank was/is having GHA issues, so I chalked it up to that. But this one is thriving.

About a year ago, I bought pods from reefs to go. My bag was full of life. I still have pods squirming all over my sump and see them in the DT now and then too. The population exploded when I first put them in but they have thinned out now. For $20, I got a ton of pods.
 
Well after dealing with all this GHA, Patience is not easy, but learning it is NEEDED in this hobby. :)

Thanks for the info YOU ROCK!!!
