12.6, .06. It’s all cyano I’m starting a chemi clean treatment tomorrow

They really are tricky. If you still have it, I could try to help out with the setting on the schedule. I ran into the issue with my lights turning on in the middle of the night but I found the problem

They really are! I’m curious how the newer ones are. I haven’t seen too much about them

Thank you sir!!

Thank you! Cyano is getting worse so I’m about to fix it with some chemi clean

I faced the same issue in my 210, until it literally became a carpet. I used chemi clean and didn’t have any issues fortunately. I try my best to go the natural route, but I think I’m going to hit it with the chemi clean once again

After cycling this tank I added the pink and purple bottles of corraline spores from ARC reef. I do think it helped by introducing it. The main contributing factor is stability of Alk, Ca in my opinion.

@@Semper.Reefing Thanks; that makes sense. Sorry if you’ve shared elsewhere, but do you know what you keep Magnesium at?

@@timjohnson3913 no problem!! Happy to help. I usually aim to keep my magnesium around 1350-1400

Man they really are. I’ve been putting off organizing all these cables…

Thank you for the support! Definitely will!

You’re right. Maybe I’ll take the noops off and turn up the radions. I wanted to experiment with the noops to maybe reduce shadowing but after seeing my acros not getting enough light I’ve been contemplating on just taking them off. I might get a quanta helix bar to run on the back side sooner than later. Thank you for the advice!

I need to get set up like you. Do you find yourself cleaning the sump often from the kalk?

Thank you!! Man my friend had some beautiful gonis, so I’m definitely on the look out for some now

I’ll second the Gonis

Thank you for the feedback. I definitely want to do a plating monti maybe on either or both back corners. I just got a chalice today that I may put in the front middle. As long as it can handle 200+ PAR

I’m very surprised my Alk was only 10.1. I guess bc the large volume of water. Sounds good I think I’ll chip away at the cleaning like you said. Thanks!

I mean guys used to run alk at like 14-16. The precipitation of the minerals wouldn’t technically be bad. Would have been easier on the live stock to slowly bring the alk down, but everything looks okay now, you’ll see more in a couple weeks time. I would use a small power head or a long bristle long hand brush.

⁠@@MylesBognerdang I had no idea they used to run it so high! I realized after doing the big water change that it probably wasn’t smart to swing it again. I woke up yesterday morning and surprisingly a lot of the minerals were gone. Been changing a lot of filter floss.

I’m in Charleston. Just got out last year! Moved up from Beaufort

Yes it does rotate and I’m not quite sure what to do! I got it in a trade and it’s pretty old. Thinking about replacing it with another hygger I got on Amazon

@@Semper.Reefingyou can buy just the base,, with Teflon post and new o-ring. You have to call Ecotech and ask, they will give the part number, then u call BRS and order just the base part. $40. I PERSONALLY have a hot glue gun that I hit the MP with after cleaning. Keeps the guard from coming off and turning my MP into a fish-ninja-blender

Dude I want a copperband,, but I have 10 tangs that are food whores. I worry it’ll get out competed…

@@Fish_Ventura thanks for this! I assumed I would have to cough up the cash for a new dry side.

@@Fish_Ventura I was a little weary at first but happy to see it eating well and getting along with the other fish

Thanks for the support! Are you going to the Southern Aquatic Experience in Columbia this October?

@@Semper.Reefing I'm definitely going to try.

I’ve been watching them and periodically check the tank in the middle of the night. This wall hammer has been finicky since I got it and I think it was irritated after increasing the light and flow.

@Semper.Reefing that might be the issue too but if your putting the coral on the bottom of the aquarium then that shouldn't be the problem it might be bacteria of some kind attacking the coral but keep an eye on the shrimp I've seen them eat coral in other videos on RUclips

@@puffers9will do! Appreciate the advice. Wondering how I can trap them if necessary. Maybe a simple bottle trap?

@Semper.Reefing maybe I would research it online

Hi! I run 3 Ecotech XR30 Blues G5. And 3 Noopsyche k7 pro II’s

No kidding!! I had to tear my 210 apart just to get a tang out!

Previously they ranged between 22-25. Now they stay between 10-15 and I’ve noticed better color in my LPS.

I’m very fortunate that my 210 has matured enough to keep them happy! I think down the road I’ll give fuel another shot. I think I was unlucky with the bottle I picked up. The AV Fuel is different than vibrant being that it’s comprised of aminos and trace elements.

Thank you!!

Thank you! I’m excited to see what will unfold with this tank

Thank you! Hit a few road bumps recently but it’s a work in progress

Appreciate that! I hit them with lemon juice but it didnt work.. what do you do specifically?

@@Semper.Reefing I used a regular 5ml syringe and spray them when they’re open it’ll melt them right away I haven’t seen any in my tank since then just be careful and keep an EYE ON CALCIUM LEVEL if I add to much I do a small water change and monitor it. To keep it at the level I like peppermint shrimp also went to town on them only thing is they like to pick at my rock flower and anemones so I get rid of them once theirs a little left I just hit them with calcium and I’m good for a while.

Thank you for this. I’m going to give it a shot. My trident test calcium twice a day so I’ll keep an eye on it. I was thinking about giving peppermint shrimp another shot too

@@Semper.Reefing the thing with the peppermint shrimp is you have to pretty much not feed them so they can start looking for a food source.

Thank you!

Thank you!!

This is Caribsea Arag-alive Fiji Pink

It was recently knocked on its side. I rarely put my hands in the tank until I have a small list of things to do- unless it’s an emergency. It has since been turned upright along with some Aiptasia control.

A blue spotted watchman goby. Beautiful vibrant blue spots when seen up close!
