OK, just read the last 30+ pages and I am impressed with your build overall. Good job. Your saltwater mix station and plumbing are nice. There are a ton of things I like about this tank. Let me know your thoughts on the Tunze Stream 3 as I plant to add two of them to my tank.

I'm just reading and reading your tank thread and like what I see. Those are the pumps I plan to add to my tank. I read they are good with little maintenance. I have to keep reading your thread. :)

Thats a nice sump too, I like the color. Built by AA too? Is your skimmer compartment level with your return? Right now I am trying to silence my aquarium via Herbie method on an elos overflow but my return keeps area keeps dropping, need to tweak it so return=drain rate.

Great tank BM, I am just curious but which Ca Rx did you decide to go with?

I have to say it was my pinpoint pH controller...:( I bought a new probe because it started trailing all over the place but the new probe did not fix it. Then I called American Marine and they confirmed it was the controller. Luckily, the controller was still under warranty so they replaced it...

OK, update long overdue..... My apologies but life got in the way and my son needed a backyard landscaped. He began to walk and would point outside all day. This was during the hot summer months in Indio. Once it cooled down I decided I had to work on my backyard and add sod. I became a Weekend...

Congrats on the store. I recently had an ALK swing and lost most of my sps :(. I read you don't use the needle valve and keep your effluent wide open. What feed pump do you use and what is your pH set at? I found myself constantly tinkering with the needle valve because it would plug up and...

Mike I set my tank up in December of 2016 and it took about 6 months until I started seeing small amounts of corralline algae. I am at about 8 months and now have an explosion of corralline algae in the back of the glass. I see my dry rock finally getting visible patches of coralline algae. You...

Thanks Tang. I am using Sony A7 with 50mm Zeiss lens Thanks EyeReef. The hawkfish can have his angry rampage and nip at some fish but the yellow coris, leopard and Blue Tang go after him. The yellow coris really kicks his butt, keeps him in check.

Interested in seeing your results. I think it was bulkreefsupply that released a video about pH and coral growth. Have you tried Kalk dripping? I thought about it too, but then its more equipment to add/monitor. I don't even know my tanks pH. I need to get a controller.

Tank Update: Finally able to get a 3rd party host for pics. I have added some new sps and fish. I will add more sps pics tomorrow. Lost this guy, went tile surfing :(

wow :a44:

Nice update V. I have to be more proficient with my tank updates as well. All the frags I got from you are doing well. Its always great to see their color potential. I will do another second round frag pack from you soon. I can't wait for your newly acquired pieces to grow and color up.

Dang I missed this thread update. Looks like your off to a great start, great equipment choices and plumbing. I like your cord management too, much better job than I did :) I have a geo reactor, a 618 if your interested, suitable for up to 300 gallons. Let me know! I am using the bigger...

Nice score V, can't wait for the real multicolors to develop on your frag. You scored a nice sized one! :)
