lukem Posted October 5, 2009 Author Share Posted October 5, 2009 So whilst I've been run off my feet taking care of my little new-born, Lachlan Jack! The crazy nCube is blooming with color and life, fatalities incurred during cycling was 3 chromis! - Temperature is now at 24c/77f (trying to control the green algae) - New additions include: Pair of Maroon Clowns Sixline Wrasse Juvenile Koran 5 hermit crabs! 4 snails - Surviving 2 chromis :-) A few new corals, scully, brain, piano, daisy and elegance which I will shoot a pic of tomorrow it's truly beautiful. - Modifications (more likely changes): Removed carbon, sponge and ceramic rings from filter chamber Added filter floss and Chemipure-Elite Added another inch of subtrate aii baby screaming back later :-) LOL hope you enjoy the pics and the brief update... All levels still very healthy, no nitrate to speak of! Link to comment
asting Posted October 5, 2009 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Looking great so far, although you may want to find a new home for that koran Once I got the return back to normal (hahah) connecting the chiller was a piece of piss! I love your phrases and expressions. I honestly wasn't sure if a piece of piss was a hard task, or an easy one until i read the next sentence. Link to comment
lukem Posted October 5, 2009 Author Share Posted October 5, 2009 I've already had a few issues with the Koran, I had to re-located the scully! Interestingly I had a very slight ammonia spike yesterday, the first time since the tank cycled and it's had an impact on the Koran - he certainly isn't look great this morning. I did a w/c last night to neutralize any further effects. I think the spike may of been the result of adding some additional substrate a week ago, all though it was washed thoroughly it's the only change outside of adding chemipure-elite and removing the carbon & ceramic rings (2 wks ago). Fun Fun Fun! Link to comment
Sahin Posted October 15, 2009 Share Posted October 15, 2009 You have a very nice tank. I really like your large tank too. I saved your thread as I am setting up the same tank myself. My liverock is curing in a large container. My next baby is due in Feb, have an almost two year son as well. When he sees the tank he says "bubbles". How is your tank going? Has all the nuisance algae gone now? Post some fresh pics when you can. Hope your new baby is doing well and not keeping you up too much at night! Link to comment
