Just updated a few photos, nothings to exciting, levels are still fluctuating also starting to see a small amount of diatom algae. Add algae to sump because I got board. Oo got my arduino to start programing the controller. Plans are to use an arduino to get a bunch of data/control things then have a ruby on rails web app control/log it all.

One other thing my "dry" live rock is getting a pink tinge to it, you can kind of see it in the rock close up. Pretty sure its just part of the curing process I doubt its coralline as its never been added to the tank, and from what I've read once it drys the spores are dead and don't return.
