Today I cleaned the K2 skimmers cup, it is getting darker, and more NASTY by the day. This was a good choice for me. I also took apart my Vortech MP-40w for cleaning, it is soaking in a vinegar solution now.

I am seriously thinking about re-aquascaping the tank, but the size of the caps really makes that a tough call. Especially with plans for a DIY 120 in the works. I have also noticed an increase or maybe bloom is a better word of red cyano algae. I am guessing that it is caused by the previous DIY food that I used for about a month. I have switched to "Rods Food" which so far has been a big hit. Currently my feeding includes, 1 tablespoon of Arctipods, 1 Tbs Oyster Eggs, both from Reef Nutrition, I also feed a piece of PE Mysis, about 1.5" by 1/2" and about the same sized piece of Rod's daily. In addition to that, I feed a couple of pinches of Spectrum pellets a couple times a day.

At this point I am also thinking of adding a second MP40, I will need it for sure with the 120, and I may be able to get a good/better deal at this time of year, as people are taking down tanks, or at least moving them down the priority list.
