I've finally arrived. My diatoms are starting to subside as well. I
haven't cleaned my back glass in a few days and I can still see through it.

I still have some fluff balls of algae around, but my rocks have
reemerged from their jungle phase.

I also have a turbo snail sporting a huge green fluff ball of algae. I
suppose I should get a shot of that before the lawnmower blenny finds him.

Wow, it's been a huge amount of work (most of it useless) to get here.
There's a lot of learning curve to this hobby, but then again, I just
jumped in without researching it. Not recommended.
