A few shots from JUST NOW

[snowmansnow]

I'm getting better coverage now w my corals as far as dispersal of frags go. I've had decent growth for the last few months and haven't lost any corals.

That being said my blue throat and a few chromis fish are acting like they are on the way out.

I'm not sure what the issue is / was, but it prompted a large WC. (thinking back I think it was due to an all spike due ti stupidity on my part).

I'm considering making another one of my t5s into an led strip. That would give me 48 Cree LEDs w mean well drivers and then 5 56w t5s.

I hope to get there one day, do you dose anything and if so what? What salt do you use?

Looks great man!

 

[snowmansnow]

Isn't it great when people come over and stare at your tank haha?

Last night our small group from church came over for the super bowl and several of them were GLUED to the tank haha

That's the best!

Hey man, thanks for the question. The only thing I dose is ALK.

I've done ZeoVit and several other things like that, but honestly Ive found the best way to GROW a reef tank is to keep things stable and keep my hands out of there as much as possible.

Basically I skim, run some GFO, and a Kalk reactor hooked to my ATO. Thats it.

I've been using SeaChem Reefsalt for a few years now and really like it.

I don't think there is a secret formula for success, as much as it is just getting the right parameters and keeping it there.

Also, lights are T5
