plowgod Posted October 30, 2015 Author Share Posted October 30, 2015 well its been 2 weeks and all the parameters are where they should be and dropped the temp to 80 f and not much change in the tank. Could I have stunted the corals? The mushrooms have not split and everything seems to be holding. Should I add another fish or some new corals to see if they grow? Confused and do not know what to do next? Thinking about building a 72 gallon bow front but a little hesitant on that until I can get this cube growing and looking good. Link to comment
Pinner Reef Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Try a couple of easy corals and watch them a couple of weeks. Remember, success comes slowly in this hobby. Take your time and get this 29 filled before you go buy a 72. Mistakes in big aquariums cost big money. Link to comment
plowgod Posted November 3, 2015 Author Share Posted November 3, 2015 Well its been a couple of weeks and I dropped the temp to 81F. And the parameters are: calcium 590 phosphate 0 nitrate 0 PH 8.4 Mag 1600 I have not seen much change, could have I stunted things? I also adjusted the light cycle to:10 hours of full intensity, 15 mins sunrise and sunset cycle, and 4 hours of moonlight duration. This is a Current Marine LED light. Where do I go from here? Any info would be a big help. Link to comment
PieMan2k Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 I know you have spent alot of time getting your calcium high but 590 might be a little too high I wouldnt do anything past 500 ppm. I've read 400 - 500 ppm is the best range for Ca levels. Link to comment
