I've gotten a lot of stuff done around the house, too. I finally got my dump filter set up on my 60 gal Mbuna.

I wanted a place to grow some plants for extra nitrate removal without the fish decimating everything....no room for a sump....

Thought you were "working from home". I should talk: just did more water changes, including using some rain water from my barrels.

Oh no! It's supposed to rain a lot more until tomorrow morning. Hope it's not too bad .... I am also concerned about water in my basement. I usually don't have issues with water in the basement, but it happened twice over the last 13 years I lived at my house.

We went out about an hour ago. Started up the genny and backfeeding for the first time. Much easier than cords all through the house.

I set up the Eheim 2217 I bought for $40 in the auction last week, put it on my 55, and took off the two smaller canisters I had on that tank, put them on 29s. Seeded the 2217 with some of the biomedia from one of the smaller canisters.
