saltwateraquarium.com recently started selling clean up crew. In-house fishless systems. I haven’t ordered anything yet, but seems like a good option. And looks like they have captive bred peppermint shrimp in stock.

So, can you laser engrave any material? Sounds neat!
Almost anything.
Here is a teaser to some things coming:

Are you using Autocad? It's been years since I've messed with it myself (my profession builds scale models so we use these). I remember years ago you had to convert the dwg file into some file format to do the printing so the work flow wasn't extremely efficient but I assume it's simpler now. Good luck w/ that new toy. Nice mod to your house for the exhaust.
I use a combination of Affinity Designer and LightBurn for all my laser stuff. And then SketchUp for my 3d printer and overall design.
Yah adding an insert to my window for the exhaust was a must. the fumes some things put off when laser cutting is really bad. Found out laser cutting Lexan is a big no no. It puts of chlorine gas when cut with a laser.

Wow, a laser engraver? I'm impressed. What are you creating? Looks like skimmer parts.
Yah. making some media reactors to start and see what comes next

Well again it has been WAYYYY too long since an update. So my tank has gotten much worse until recently, Had a Trident fail on me and i didn't have notifications set up for it. Had 2 MP-40's fail on me and had to RMA them. Still waiting for one to come back. Lost my acans, my show size elegance, and a few blastos. I had the realization that the 0 water change is complete BS. The Triton method is a bunch of BS. So going back to doing water changes, using Fritz RPM salt and the tank is starting to look better and better. May take a stab at adding some more acros this summer.
I have a new family member! Piper! My new little girl. She has been eating up a lot of my time as well as a new side project to help with the reef keeping.

Well it's been a hot min since I have updated my build thread. So I figured out what killed the 2 leopard wrasses. Its my Moyer's Leopard. He is one agressive fish. Going to be working on getting him out so he can move to something in the 300-600g range. Finally finished my stand skin after 8 months. Added a Avast Marine Kalk Stirrer. Ditched the Jebao Crossflow pumps. they are complete junk. 4-5 months in one died and the other 2 are leaking voltage. Swapped to 2 Vortech MP-40's and in the process of getting 2 more.
Got 2 Blue Gudgeons, a pudding wrasse, a second royal gramma, a yellow tail damsel, 18 peppermint shrimp, and 24 emerald crabs.
Currently dealing with Aiptasia (Came in on an Aqua SD frag), bubble algae (Came in on a hammer i got from another Hobbyist), and cyano (Probably waited too long to change my GFO or not enough flow)

Thank you all for your responses..
I’ll continue to do more research and maybe perhaps snag one on Black Friday.
I think i saw a rollermatte on BRS clearance section might be a good grab

Do you like the Aquamax reactor?
I have 2x Aquamax XL's and I really like them. I have 1 for carbon and 1 for GFO
-
use an aquamax reactor? Also use larger carbon. the rox carbon is so small it clogs very easily unless you are tumbling it.

Thanks! I guess ill bedoing 2 of those + corner gusset and hopefully that's good enough.
Now I'm trying to figure out how to mount it onto the stand so that it's actually secure and won't come off.
do you have a metal or wood stand?
-
if you use 2 of these for the corner fasteners you will be fine: https://8020.net/4352-black.html

levimisol hydrochloride dips have worked for AEFW for me.

maybe a keyhole limpet or a black sponge?

Fluks tab is what I have always used. I have a couple of boxes in my fish closet if you are in need of some. works great for killing off softies without harming things like sps and lps.
the chemicals that are in flukes tab are:
methyl-5-benzoyl-benzimidazol-2-carbmate
dimethyl (2,2,2-trichloro-1-hydroxyethyl) phospahte
so i am pretty sure fenbendazole will not have the same effects
