It simply swirls in circles over and over again. I've thought about gutting it, then turning the tank backwards so the curve is on the backside. However, I'm too lazy for that mess. 🙂 I do have some easy to care for freshwater plants (2) and I can see them swaying just a bit though. If either of you need a glass top, let me know and I can ship it if you'd cover the shipping. It's always warm in my office so I've just taken the lid off permanently. Yeah I took mine off too, too much heat in the tank with it on. I like the curved front lol 😁 Quote Link to comment
ReefMasterFlex941 Posted September 19, 2018 Author Share Posted September 19, 2018 Got some new additions today I’ll get some better pics once everything is in the tank and looking good. 2 Quote Link to comment
ReefMasterFlex941 Posted September 19, 2018 Author Share Posted September 19, 2018 Only a couple hours and the acan and Duncan are looking great. The sexies haven’t moved much, probably still a little stressed. 2 Quote Link to comment
ReefMasterFlex941 Posted September 21, 2018 Author Share Posted September 21, 2018 one of the sexies didn’t make it 😥. Starting to see some diatom blooms, all parameters are in check except ammonia, reading at about .02. I won’t be adding anymore coral or livestock till this is in check. I changed my Fuge light to run 24/7 and I’ll be doing 2 50% water changes a week to help combat the ammonia and diatoms. 1 Quote Link to comment
ReefMasterFlex941 Posted September 23, 2018 Author Share Posted September 23, 2018 Ammonia is reading in at 0 today. All other parameters are in check. Still seeing some diatoms, but it doesn’t seem to be spreading. refugium is back on its alternate cycle with the display, temp was getting too high running it 24/7. I haven’t started my water change schedule that I previously stated, if I see need for it I will but everything seems to be good atm. I have also lowered the intensity of the ai prime leds, I think that was a big part in the diatoms. Quote Link to comment
ReefMasterFlex941 Posted October 21, 2018 Author Share Posted October 21, 2018 Just some updated photos, blasto looks like crap because I just did a water change. 3 Quote Link to comment
Tamberav Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Cute little tank! That rock will look really nice once that cyphastrea coral takes off. 1 Quote Link to comment
ReefMasterFlex941 Posted December 7, 2018 Author Share Posted December 7, 2018 Took some top down pics today, fought through some Dino’s, seems to be under control at the moment. Zoas have all sprouted 3-10 new heads, my bubblegum Digi was getting too much flow and suffered rtn, I have since moved it and it is slowly coming back. I have just about given up on my cyphastrea, no matter where I put it in the tank it isn’t happy. Blasto has 11 heads now and has grown quite a bit more skeleton. Gsp is growing at least cm per week or more. 1 Quote Link to comment

Palooza Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Nice progress so far. I'm starting a pico with the other 3.7 from petco, the Imagitarium unit. It has been a great lil planted tank for about 2 yrs. Stripping it down and starting the build this weekend. Gonna follow this thread for some ideas 1 Quote Link to comment
