The next step in fixing the sump feed situation, is to snake out the feed line. Plumbers snake not yet located in Hab. Will attempt with electrical fish reel tomorrow. Have received various instructions for the greenhab (Aquatic plants, etc) which will be addressed subsequent to getting the feedwater reestablished.

The trickling Filter tanks are circulating, the airpump to tanks 2 and 4 is pumping, and the space heaters are running at night. We have received instructions for the evaporation experiment and will look for a suitable container here and set that up when the aquatic plants arrive.
