I got my new top off container installed, I have it feeding into the existing top off reservoir right now, however I eventually plan to turn the stock one into a refugium. The vase can hold about 5 -6 gallons. When I get back in town I plan on finding a way to hide the tubing coming out of it.

Some Updates:

 

I came home from my trip to find my tank in generally good condition, some of the macros that were growing have taken off quite a bit, so I had to trim them back and added an emerald crab. The Waspfish is out more and is now eating frozen, which Is a relief. The Rock is really starting to show a huge amount of diversity. There are more tunicates than i can count as well as things I have never seen before.

 

Here are some pics of the Waspfish

So even with the new impeller coral view sent our, I'm not completely satisfied with the skimmer production from my Icecap K2-50. It still produces decent skimmat but it just seems like the bubble density it was putting out when I first got it has steadily decreased. I know many retailers are having sales on the Aquamax skimmers, and I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with them? Specifically I am looking at CO-1. Any thoughts?

This looks awesome! Such a great idea!

Here are some pics with my new IPhone 7, I must say this camera is way better at taking pictures under LED light. The images have had no manipulation.

 

Pictures were taken a few hours after my lights turn off, so most things are retracted

The last picture is of this random thing growing on one of my rocks, any idea what it is?

i love my aquamaxx co-1. it's quiet and pulls out nasty stuff. although i notice in the last week, it has been skimming wetter than normal.

What size tank? Bioload? Depth ? I know it says optimum water level is 9.5", and my simp skimmer depth is 8"

WS-1 is the in sump version of the HOB-1... killer skimmer!

Maybe I'll just get one of those ($115... so cheap), and if I have to I can augment with the Icecap K2-50. Having both skimmers in the sump would tK up less space than the CO-1...

 

Also I have to give thanks to Russ at Gulf Coast Ecosystems (www.live-plants.com) for volunteering to reship my entire order from August (all of it died) and cover the cost of shipping. Amazing customer service! So I should have three new gorgs on Wednesday

All photos except the FTS are unedited. Anyone have any idea what the orange thing in the second to last picture is?
