xLimitlessJR Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 Thanks Arce, I do have my fuge light on a timer opposite my DT lights but maybe ill just try leaving the door to the fish room open more often Link to comment
xLimitlessJR Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 Went ahead and treated the tank to raise the PH @arce I know it's not a big deal but just for piece of mind. I used Seachems reef buffer and it seems to have worked! Been testing a few times a day and getting solid 8.3s Link to comment
Arce Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Thats good, dont go crazy over it though. Link to comment
xLimitlessJR Posted April 16, 2014 Author Share Posted April 16, 2014 My fuge is growning macro like crazy! i started with a tennis ball clump of chaeto and a handful of calerpa and now its pretty much a 2 inch thick layer on top of my fuge. So heres my question...when do i begin harvesting the macro? Link to comment

xLimitlessJR Posted April 28, 2014 Author Share Posted April 28, 2014 added two new rock nems last week...not doing to great...any ideas? Link to comment
gulfsurfer101 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Looking good. I love everything about this tank from the fish down to the white trim. My first plans for my 75g were to be a wall divider tank between my kitchen and my dining room but I don't ever spend time in part of my house so I set it up in place of my old tank that got plenty of loving. I still have a spare 75g sitting in one of my closets now that I may just do that and set up as a predator tank. Can't wait to see what direction you'll take it. I planned on sps too and am just getting into the habit of following my parameters to get a dosing regime down. Link to comment

I think its the inaccuracy of the Red Sea test kit. Im going back to API. Hopefully i can get it dialed in so i can start an auto dosing schedule to keep my levels steady. As far as SPS so far i have failed miserably. Ill try again in a month or two. Good luck with the Copperband! thanks! Copperbands doing great! got him eating frozen mysis although hes not a veracious eater Link to comment

What are you trying to test for? Alk,calc,mag? API aren't accurate. For the red sea test just be sure to follow the directions on the card precisely. Copperband looks great btw, good luck with it.

dpoltsdsu Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 If he's already eating mysis then that's a good sign! Link to comment
