Great shot of the purple tang. I had mine for 5 years now, My purple hasn't changed much in size. How big is yours?

Mike, what is your maintenance regimen? We have the same water volume and I can't get over the nice SPS. Do you dose or use a calcium reactor? How often do you do water changes? Pellets? Fish load? Etc. Inquiring minds would like to know.

I do 30g water changes every 2 weeks. When I siphon the water out, I use a gravel vacuum to help keep my shallow sand bed clean. On the week I don't do a w/c, I dose Mg. I dose CA and ALK daily via drews dosers controlled by my Apex. Currently, I'm at about 50mls/day. I use the BRS supplements. I'm running about 3/4 the recommended dose of pellets in a Aquamaxx reactor that feeds my fuge. My fuge is not lit and has 10 detox blox in there.
In this hobby, I believe you have to proactive and not reactive.
