What Have You Done To Your Tank Lately.

[saltyair]

Sold all my coral [emoji17][/QUOTE

That must suck

 

[monizb]

Theres 2polyps of RR Ultra rainbow rastas, 4polyps of space monsters, 4-6polyps of devils armour, 1 polyp and a baby of gold mauls, 3 lunar eclipse, probably 8+ sunrise sakura, 12 mohawks and probably 12 or so aliens eye.

 

[monizb]

Just added and I'm done for a little

 

[saltyair]

Well did my regular w/c and decided to clean my jabeo's
wow I didn't realize how much power they had lost. Adding cleaning jadeo's to a monthly schedule.

I though I was the only one. From my experience these things SUCK when they get a little dirty. I had no power on my wp25. Thought something was wrong took it apart and wiped off a very very fine layer of slime from magnet and put it back together and it's good as new. Problem is I'm doing it weekly. If I don't the flow plummets.

Very cool setup. Once my sps start to grow out, im thinking of starting a cube

 

[jeffopentax]

Added some new fish yesterday. Moorish idol, bluethroat trigger (appears to be male), sailfin tang, pearlscale butterfly, and dogface puffer. Going to try to leave things be and not add/change anything til new year. Easier said than done!

 

[scubasteve]

added another power head and put a splitter on both my channels for the wave maker got a hydor koralia 1050 and 650 on both sides switching every 30 seconds everything is loving the stronger flow so far

Jeff how big is your setup? I don't want to be preaching just a word of caution adding that many fish especially a trigger and puffer all at once (messy eaters) will challenge your biological filter.
if I can make a suggestion try doing 2 or 3 small water changes a week for the first month just to let the biological filtration catch up.

Never hesitate to throw out advice! I have a 150g, and have noticed my skimmer cup filling quicker and darker lately, but think it's "over the hill", and starting to normalize

Last night I ripped my DT apart and converted it to a bean animal. Started with a standard 75 reef ready. So I added 2 holes in the back glass and ran the return and dry emerge. Turned out awesome, so quiet it's amazing. Now I have to get my pumps quieter. Thanks to Jeff and everyone that help me make the decision and steve for helping to do it.

[ great that you have a good skimmer. But the tank will take a month or so to normalize.
If you can't do small wc - I would suggest some bottled bacteria.
Thank for the reply - always trying to be helpful

[derrick orosz]

added a nice bubble coral yesterday from aquariums by design

 

[saltyair]

Let's see it
Always liked bubble corals - just wouldn't work in my setup tho.

Ordered in a smart ato with pump and kulk should be here friday.

Just downloaded aqualog thanks to this forum

Messed up this week with my cal I doubled my dose (did two cal instead of 1cal and 1 dkh)
my cal is @ 490.

Slowed down my aio bio-pellets - this has made a big difference for the positive. After 1 month of no wc with heavy feeding my no3 is 0 and p04 is .02.

I will be doing a wc this weekend (I have never gone this long)
