| 2026-02-19 06:07:57 +0100 | <edwardk> | the big freshwater tank has an autmatic water change system and just sort of takes care of itself. the big reef tank, will not be so hands off. |
| 2026-02-19 06:06:57 +0100 | <edwardk> | but it feels a bit underwhelming in comparison ;) |
| 2026-02-19 06:06:49 +0100 | <edwardk> | for reading the co2 sensor in the room and updating the dashboard |

| 2026-02-19 06:06:14 +0100 | <edwardk> | i do have a bit of haskell in the mi |
| 2026-02-19 06:04:35 +0100 | <edwardk> | trying to convince my wife we can keep epaulette sharks. she's not amused. |
| 2026-02-19 06:03:55 +0100 | <edwardk> | and i'm kind of glad i didn't pull the trigger on my previous 1100 gallon plan! |
| 2026-02-19 06:03:37 +0100 | <edwardk> | but compared to the "huge to me" 450 gallon stingray tank this is insane. |
| 2026-02-19 06:03:09 +0100 | <edwardk> | i'm sure to anyone who has been doing this as a hobby for a long time this is nothing |
| 2026-02-19 06:02:57 +0100 | <edwardk> | so dosing pumps for kalkwasser for the calcium+alkalinity, automatic top off, testing equipment and probes. |
| 2026-02-19 06:01:38 +0100 | <edwardk> | THEN i have to scrub that away before it reaches the air around the display tank |
| 2026-02-19 06:01:38 +0100 | <edwardk> | i have probes for basically everything. Calcium, Alkalinity, Magnesium matter for the cyphastrea. nitrate/phosphate mix as well. then we have the problem that a puffer and zebra moray eel both crunch the usual cleanup crew of a saltwater aquarium. which is why i can't run most corals. most of the things that would keep them healthy will get eaten. so i have to do nutrient export via a gigantic protein skimmer with injected ozone, but |
| 2026-02-19 05:59:26 +0100 | <edwardk> | for the 200 gallon there _is_ an electronic control subsystem. =) |

| 2026-02-19 05:58:37 +0100 | <edwardk> | the fowlr tank is proving to be quite the engineering challenge, just because it turns out keeping 6 55 gallon drums worth of saltwater up and running and in tune is a lot of work (display + sump = a lot of water), and the 50 gallon is its own challenge because dragonets only eat a narrow diet and s it basically is an underwater bug farm with a couple of flashy fish on top of the ecsystem. |

| 2026-02-19 05:56:50 +0100 | <edwardk> | and a 50 gallon reef tank that will actually have a bunch of corals in it, which is being set up to house a pair of green mandarin dragonets and some more standard saltwater fish and cleanup crew. |
| 2026-02-19 05:56:04 +0100 | <edwardk> | but we're in the process of setting up a 200 gallon reef tank (FOWLR, fish-only-with-live-rock) to house a porcupine pufferfish and a zebra moray eel (and some misc fish). mostly a non-coral saltwater tank, though, some cyphastrea corals becaue they encrust and are harder for a puffer to just sample with his teeth, because his teeth are how he explores the world |
| 2026-02-19 05:55:13 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> awesome |
| 2026-02-19 05:53:47 +0100 | <edwardk> | so now the stingray has his own 450 gallon tank elsewhere in the house. and the koi have since grown up and moved outside and the 300 gallon is now a community tank full of various noodly looking fish (ropefish, dojo loaches, etc) |
| 2026-02-19 05:53:10 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> yikes |

| 2026-02-19 05:52:49 +0100 | <edwardk> | i wound up having to set up a 300 gallon tank in my livingroom for a bunch of baby koi that were born in the backyard way out of season. then we adopted a stingray, because i really only needed 150 gallons to hold all the koi and he was sad. he was a good houseguest of the koi for 6 months. then he discovered they were tasty |
| 2026-02-19 05:52:37 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> there shall be a haskell-based embedded reef tank ecology controller |
| 2026-02-19 05:51:50 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> we'll tie it back to haskell |
| 2026-02-19 05:51:47 +0100 | <edwardk> | okay. will move the moment someone complains. =) |
| 2026-02-19 05:51:35 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> nothing else happening here :) |
| 2026-02-19 05:51:28 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <sm> yes, tell about the fish ? |
| 2026-02-19 05:50:55 +0100 | <humasect> | i want to hear about the fish |
| 2026-02-19 05:50:32 +0100 | <edwardk> | er.. happy to move that to #haskell-offtopic if folks get annoyed at me talking about fish |

| 2026-02-19 05:50:01 +0100 | <edwardk> | haskellbridge/sm: water is heavy. it doesn't take much volume before you hit the ton marker! |

| 2026-02-19 05:33:32 +0100 | <jreicher> | I'm almost inclined to say that for stepping purposes it might be worth giving the user to evaluate everything strictly with control over when/where the evaluation is "skipped" (obviously not needed expressions) |
