Thanks for asking!
Actually, things are going great. I've been busy with a new client so I haven't had much time to put my hands in the tank and mess it up

The clowns and the bicolor seem like they are at home now, and rush to the top whenever I walk by the tank. Been feeding a frozen blend once a week and some flake once a week. Getting some coraline growth on the exposed pvc, and I'm happy about that.

I did remove the refugium and just xfer the chaeto to the sump. I do want to have the penthouse fuge, just have to re-figure out how to set it up. Got a zoomed powersweep free from the LFS (yeah I know, but they theme is free/cheap) cause it didn't turn anymore. After a cleaning and vinegar soak, it works just fine.

The lights are still the 4 ODNO lamps, with another 18" antinic thrown in. I moved them as close to the tank as possible, and it's much better. Still on the prowl for a junker PC fixture though lol.

I added an open brain and a nice rock covered with daisy polyps to see how they respond to the lighting. I'll grab a pic or two hopefully this evening.
