How to you do that ? BTW. Great job on the tank. Im sure that most of us would be happy just to be able to do half as well. Ah, is that in reference to the quote about being like the vendors? I meant turning up the blues on my lighting :D. On 4/8/2020 at 2:02 AM, duncantse said: Hi there just wanna say I read through your entire thread and your tank is stunning! What are your thoughts on dosing amino acids? I've noticed that you stopped dosing the red sea colors. Thanks! I've never had much success dosing supplements of any kind beyond the standard 2 part/3 part dosing regimen. For me, amino acids typically lead to an outbreak in cyano. Not sure if that's me doing something wrong though.... 1 Quote Link to comment

Speaking of, mittens, you were worried about the Holy Grail looking bleh under normal lighting conditions - here's mine at my usual mix. I run 2 Blue+, 1 Purple, 1 Coral and Radions are currently set to 100% blues, purples, 35% whites,reds, greens. So not windex blue lol. Ignore my cyano and microbubbles floating around. 4 Quote Link to comment

Why would you do such things such as tinkering with your tank? Still share us the pics, you know we can handle the good, and the bad. 😬. Plus it’d force you to take the photos of this “kinda ugly” phase for visual record. 1 Quote Link to comment
