The refugium can be just as enjoyable after the display lights shut off

Just another evening sitting by the tank

So, I finally broke down and bought some Hanna Checkers, I've been in and out of the hobby since the late 80s and have always relied on titration tests but with my latest system I have not been able to nail down my parameters, I tested one number and my LFS with my own test kit tested a wildly different number. I know these test kits vary wildly from manufacturer to manufacturer and from user to user but my own back to back tests were all over the place. I know Hanna tests have variations but for me and my old ass eyes it's much easier to read a digital number display than try to distinguish between shades of pink, blue and green.

Dropped my collection cup due to a case of the butter fingers and broke it. Did my best to superglue it back together, now let's see if she holds. I can't find a replacement cup for this skimmer anywhere, I'll have to diy one if needed.
