Picked up RFAs online. Pretty nice but small.

Got a nice pic of the clownfish hosting flowerpot

Love my blastos

Went to Aquapros for fish, came back with a wellso

FTS. I really need more fish, but everything I want, I shouldn't get. Want a flame angel, blue star leopard wrasse, or copperhead butterfly

Not at the moment since I am trying to keep things simple, but will definitely consider it in the future when the tank is fully stocked.

How are your sps responding to light , are you able to control your light yet
Tank is looking great

The easy SPS (monti, birdnest, stylo) are doing great. The pinkish mariculture acro is turning green so not sure if that means too much light or too little light. I ended up buying an Android tablet to control the light. The app sucks though.

Yea, got cyano too =(. I am going to put in new GFO and carbon in the reactor this weekend. I was hoping I only need to change them one a month, but I guess I need to change them every 2 weeks.

I've just had a spurt of cyano as well. Despite heavy skimming, GFO, carbon, and a fuge packed with Chaeto it still is going strong. I shutoff the lights tonight and am going to do 3 days off. Maybe worth a consideration.

did you put all those rock nems in your tank? would love to see some close ups of those in there too!

 

[ninjamyst]

New FTS


Got my fuge set up. Thanks [MENTION=189]trackfast[/MENTION] for the chaeto hookup. Gonna get some pods and phyto this weekend from PorkchopExpress to jump start the pod population too.

Actually lost 4 of the nems already. They detached from the rock and floated right into the big torch. $100 gone just like that. sigh.

Every time i see your tank i am amazed, looks great. I especially like your trio of firefish, not many tried and succeeded. Minimal aquascape and negative use of space makes this tank look bigger. This should be next featured tank on CR.

Just noticed no top screen, no jumpers so far or you just took it down for the video?

hey i noticed you have filter floss between your fuge (second chamber) and return pump (third chamber)...while i've also thought about doing this in order to minimize microbubbles in the display tank, won't this impede your pods from getting into the your DT? or are you just going to periodically pour water or rinse off chaeto in the display?
