nice Tony, the tank looks perfect in the living room.

But, where did you move the stripper pole to?

Looking good Tony. Don't set up those pellets man. It looks like WW3 in my tank, just pulled out 2 more colonies:violin: today so in 12 days, 7 colonies, 4 minis and 9 frags. Some LE some wild. Stick with the vodka and amino's your tank is perfect.

Good luck on you new project.:beer:

How many do you use? I'm using a small cup last 2 weeks, I will add 1 cup later today.

I lost some LPS during the first 1-2 weeks of installing a biopellet reactor..I just stuck with it and continued it, and now I am 4 weeks into using pellets, and my LPS is not dying anymore.. I added pellets slowly too, 1 cup a week, now I have 1000ml total , and it is stabilzing..

lost a lot of nice Tony Bui LE LPS in my tank the first 1-2 weeks.

dont do it the fish is right it will look like a war zone. my 120 look like something i ate 12 hours after

yeah, i agree toni, tony, tone...don't do it again. i always tell people that have really well established tanks that have mature colonies, stick with what got you there. Don't experiment on the latest and greatest thing just because you're bored and want a new challenge. Your tank looks amazing and the growth has taken you so long for you to just throw it all away on a whim/new magical pill or pellet in this case.
