Didnt edit them , but they look slightly better in person.. I think they where pretty stressed from shipping.. the little frogspawn is having a hard time

Thanks buddy.. I don’t normally give a shit about a fish but this was one of my favorites.. I’ve managed to kill my two favorite fish. If the apex deal goes through that’s a score got one of the old classics for 250 on here.. guy seems cool so I don’t foresee any problems

Well everything is going pretty good in the tank but decided hey let’s change some stuff up🙃... so I had this master plan with my kessil lights . I figured I would get a narrow version for the left side bc the rocks aren’t as high and a wide version for the right so I wouldn’t bleach stuff up on top .. in hindsight I wouldn’t do that again lol.. anyways I was playing with the par meter and light intensity and realized if I ever wanted my par to be high enough for sps on the right side the left side would have too much par for my  lps.  Soooooo I swapped the narrow version to the right side and the wide version to the left .. par levels are getting more where I want them.. probably ramp them up slowly over the next few months too..

So got that used apex yesterday from a fellow nano reefer.  Came packed super well.. he even made an hell of an effort to save the ph probe. Shipped it with a damp cloth , balloon around the end, zipped locked at tape really well to keep air out..  didnt even ask for the extra effort, kinda figured I would have to buy a new one.. going to try and cal it and see if it's any good😊... kinda a pain to setup if you get a used one since I didnt know wtf i was doing lol.. got it down now.. fusion app is a great interface but going to take a minute to figure it out.. got it tested and working for a killswitch for my heaters so that's a plus.. now to figure how to use the rest of this stuff lol

Well Apex is installed... turned out clean.. I really love having this little shelf system to hide my wiring 😎... this unit isnt a new apex with wifi so I had to buy a wifi adapter from amazon.. should be here quick and then I can get it back on my network.. for now I programmed it with it plugged into my router, but unplugged it and installed it on the tank.. currently it's not doing anything but safeguarding my tank from over heating.. 😎
