Sk8n Reefer Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 My nitrates are doing amazing they are next to zero I will take a picture of the whole tank and i love your build i was scared to put in a SPS in that tank I have one in my 40g . Thanks for cking it out! Try a Montipora species- they tend to be more forgiving. It's all about keeping parameters as level and even as possible. Good news on your nitrates- look forward to seeing some FTS Link to comment

thomas8man Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 Is that open brain in trouble? Can't quite tell looks like it receding . What's the big piece on the right? it is lobo and it was in my 40g for a couple days but then my 40g was having silicate problems so i moved it over until further notice. But my 40g problem is fixed now and the lobo is still alive just keeps going out but the center of it just not so well and did a fresh water dip for it is doing better Link to comment
Sk8n Reefer Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Nice - fresh water dip- gettin after it! I haven't been that brave yet! Link to comment
thomas8man Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 Nice - fresh water dip- gettin after it! I haven't been that brave yet! All I do is get DI water to any new coral that i get to get off any flatworms or fireworms(do this in a bowl). They hate fresh water and corals are more than able to get swished in for 20 seconds.

I might have to try that- saw some white spots on my setosa- very small couldn't tell if they are moving- I dipped in revive and scrubbed- we will see Link to comment

thomas8man Posted October 6, 2015 Author Share Posted October 6, 2015 This thread is to be closed because I have decided that I would give my saltwater tank to a kid that wants to learn about fish tanks and understand how they work. After long time contiplation I decided to give him my 16 gallon innovative marine that I used to go into the hobby and learn. Link to comment
