Wretched Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Looks good, I also run a JBJ 45 w/ a maxspect 120w 16k. Just today I have replaced the maxspect w/ 2x AI Prime units. Look forward to your progress. Link to comment
PDR Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Thanks. I took your advise and bought some prime yesterday. As of now, all results are low Am .25 Ni .25 Na 0 It doesn't take much Am or Ni to do damage to the fish. I would definitely use the prime to detox it. I believe seachem recommends using it every 24-48 hours. Link to comment

HarryPotter Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Heck yeah a RL-45 build! Check out my Nanocube Thread- I'm transitioning to a RL-45 this month! It'll have DIY sump, Radion XR30w pro, 2x Vortech Mp10wQD, Super Reef Octopus Sump, Apex Gold, etc! I'm so happy to have someone else with a similar tank! Link to comment

Jdc88 Posted May 15, 2015 Author Share Posted May 15, 2015 Okay so I went to my lfs to get me a cuc but since I do not have any algae yet I decided to just get a few fish and one coral. I picked up a galaxea which should not be by other corals so I put it on top by its self. I understand they need lots of light. I tested my calcium and KH and got 161 on KH. And 440 on calcium. Is that in range? Link to comment
HarryPotter Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 I just started my RL-45 too! The livestock and LR will be a transfer, so I should be able to avoid a cycle. I hope! Link to comment
