JavaJacketOC Posted September 8, 2016 Author Share Posted September 8, 2016 Tank looks great man. Thanks, trying to get growth to a point where things feel substantial...long process, lol. Some other updates: Got alk stabilized around 8.9 (160 ppm) and cal at about 420. Last test showed by cal had dropped to 395 so upped daily dosing by about 5 ml per day, will keep watching to see if it remains stable. Sand bed is looking a lot better, currently siphoning about 50% of it every 3-4 days. Still can't seem to get rid of the diatoms as a whole but I think I'm comfortable with where it's at...still not ready to do a hard reset. Hippopus Clam died I quit with clams. Got some cyano in my fuge, added a Koralia Nano and am going to start dosing MetroKat's Microbacter7 and Calcium Carbonate mixture. I think I want a new light but really having a hard time deciding what route to go. I think something like 3-4 LED pucks and 4 T5's in a 36" fixture...just need to find someone selling something similar or a fixture I can have retro'd. Link to comment
JavaJacketOC Posted September 8, 2016 Author Share Posted September 8, 2016 I just remembered....I need to get rid of my clownfish, she's getting big and mean but isn't usually fooled by by any fish traps and such. I may need to take a lot of stuff out to get her Link to comment

JavaJacketOC Posted April 30, 2017 Author Share Posted April 30, 2017 Had to take this guy down Had a mild crash about 8 months ago and nothing ever really recovered. I had growth but really poor colors and would randomly lose stuff...couldn't figure it out and couldn't correct it. Going to work on a small, low tech freshwater planted tank until I'm able to devote time to something bigger. Link to comment
