Addinali Posted June 25, 2015 Author Share Posted June 25, 2015 gGlad I got this guy for $9.99 now its coloring up nicely. Quote Link to comment
Addinali Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 Ok all my levels are stable except my Alk for the last week I have had to double my dosing to keep it where I want it. Is the SPS finally using alot more all of the sudden. My mag stays pretty stable at 1320 and my calcium between 440 and 460 my alk was staying at 8-9kh but this week if I keep the normal dose it goes down to 7-7.5 of I double dosing I get 9 again. Can I expect some good growth with all the extra use in Alk? Quote Link to comment
Addinali Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 Pictures look great! Thanks! Yours are way better though. Quote Link to comment
Addinali Posted June 27, 2015 Author Share Posted June 27, 2015 So I went out to the lfs and picked up some nice corals Im heading home in a good mood. Then I get home my whole left side has collapsed down on my rockscape crushing corals and making some big frags of my monti. So I went from being happy to pissed real fast. I spent the next 2 hours rescaping and regluing corals now everything is pissed off but I think it will make it. Quote Link to comment
Addinali Posted June 28, 2015 Author Share Posted June 28, 2015 Well here is the tank after the rock disaster and adding new corals early everything is still kind of mad. 1 Quote Link to comment

Well anyways I need to jump over to yur thread and see how your tank s coming along.I'm pretty sure thats why I lost a few spsAlk swings...but I think I have it stabilized ATM. I'd love to invest in a doser but that's a lot of money...I haven't updated my thread with pics in awhile lol...I've just been busy and trying to get the tank where it should be. It was a rough couple months but I think I've finally got things figured out. Color and PE is starting to look like ir used to in durrr. Quote Link to comment
