I went in over the weekend and adopted the Magma Wrasse, Marjorie Wrasse and Pearly Jawfish.
Everyone should check out the cuttlefish. If I thought I could do a species tank right now, I'd have that little guy. So interactive, the pulsing chromatophores, just cool! Don't see them everyday...
Yeah it has a sensor. For me, it is clogging so fast that it blows through the roll in a couple days. I'm going to get the official bracket which allows partial bypass. Maybe I'm just running too much flow.
Absolutely correct, that's Boxer. He's actually my neighbor's fish, but he had to move and wasn't able to set up a tank for him in the new location. He might be with me for a few years, so hopefully he's comfy. He's very personable, comes up and peeks out the top of the tank when I'm working on...
Similar results here on my skimmer. I think this is pulling out gunk that my skimmer usually removes.
For the Klir, I think it's been advancing the roll too aggressively, so I put it on a timer. Will watch water level and up it if it seems too little. It still ends up being more changing than...
I've been using an app called "Aquarium Camera" which color corrects quite well without the need for a filter. Here are some shots of Kylo Ren, my weird urchin:

Had to cut 4" off bottom as I hadn't remembered that my sump has fins at the bottom, plus it wouldn't fit under my stand. It is now 12" tall, 9"x4.5". If I was building again, I'd make it 9"x5" to allow water to flow around sides of Klir easier.
Super easy to install of you have a sock-ready...
Plumbing problems, I hear you. Apparently the sump adaptor for the Klir is backordered for a while, so since my sump wasn't built for socks, I'm slightly screwed. Also, Klir doesn't come with any instructions, though it's 95% assembled to start.
Anyway, I jury rigged an adaptor myself out of...
