I have been ghost feeding the tank for over 2 weeks now and no ammonia!? Maybe the food I bought is some magical food that decomposes to air or something? What light are you going with? I think you mentioned it before, but I must have forgotten. Link to comment

Deckoz2302 Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 I the back...yea... in the front is dragons tongue aimlessly floating around because I still haven't scaped the fuge Link to comment
Deckoz2302 Posted March 10, 2013 Author Share Posted March 10, 2013 So I know this sounds off. But I need to figure out a solution incase my power is to ever go out. If my power goes out my sump will overflow. So I need to either get a PVC solenoid valve that will plug into the same outlet as my mag9.5 so that it shuts off the drain or...find a ups that can last for upto 13 hours for just the mag9.5....hmmm Link to comment
gena Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Um lol... Needs more macro... BTW...what do you do with the miracle grow??? For the tank???? Link to comment

gena Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Lol yea I know I need more...waiting to transfer the rest so my current tank doesn't crash lol. The miracle grow is for my phytoplankton cultures lol got it. I didn't think it was common practice to put that stuff in reef tanks. I think your fuge needs more yellow light and very bright! My chaeto took off after I did both of those things. The cyano I had on the sand is gone now because of that Link to comment

The cyano I had on the sand is gone now because of that The front fuge is lit by a full spectrum 75/25 t5...and the cheato tumbler has my old led fuge lights over it.. so 8x warn white and 8x 630nm reds. I didnt feel like runnung the aquafuge light. But ill probably retrofit the column fuge with my current tank light once i break it down and transfer it all over. Link to comment
