well I've got the panels on the stand, all closed in just before the 8 month old starts crawling. CUC and some fish in the tank, I found a bunch of tiny pods on the glass today which made the kids very excited. I have a bit of a ciano bloom in the sand bed rite now not sure what its feeding on but it seems to be receding in spots.

NH3=0
NO2=0
NO3=10
PO4=.03-.05
alk=3mql
ph=8.1

I'm loving the Lifereef skimmer still making small adjustments to it, I'm getting a pretty thick skim from it rite now. now if the ciano would go away I'd be really happy. the shot glass is a chunk of ciano in hydrogen peroxide to confirm that it wasn't algae.

some new additions to the DT, the ciano out break is receding and the coralline algae is starting to fill in. the last pic I'm not sure what type of zoa's they are.

Update?

ask and you shall receive, some fish moved up from QT this weekend, 5 x anthias and a flame angle, every one happy and healthy. my qt tank is sterilized and will be ready for the next round of fish in a couple of days. the coralline algae is really taking off in my tank now I just need more frags... frag fest cant come quick enough.

love then flame angle. I've always been tempted to add but scared of them munching on corals

I love the splash of bright colour and he likes to duck in and out of the rock work. Knock on wood so far no interest in the corals that I have. he seems more interested in hunting pods and picking at small bits of algae... I just need to keep him well fed.

Finally finished my light canopy, I added in 2 60" t5 1blue+ and 1 purple+. I'm thinking of adding 2more down the road.
