Day 70 - Nightly adventure

After many nights I spent thinking about upgrading my night experience in My Tiny Ocean without doing a full LED upgrade I finally did it today.
I bought a simple blue flexible LED strip (SMD-5050) and placed it in the hood next to the T-5 plastic cover, connected it to a dimmer and a timer.

The strip:

Looks cool Gur, but I don't want to burst you bubble. That will not last long even if it is water proof.
I suggest you try and put it in with the T5's some how to protect it from the salt moisture.

Hermits decided to check the Open Brain Coral ??
Didn't find any wounds after they left it...
I hope they only cleaned it...

Electricity is the what's keeping the reef alive in captivity, so when the electricity company is about to cut the power for 6 hours something has to be done. a generator was added to the system just to keep me calm and the animals happy...

Great pictures and you will not regret the generator, mines paid for itself several times over. Have fun!

Congrats on the generator - great back up addition !

be sure to run it outside, as I am sure you know... carbon monoxide poisoning
