I made sure to change the filter floss in my sump before I went on my trip. Otherwise I've been sticking to changing the floss twice a week like I've been told to do. Surprisingly that stuff does get clogged if I dont and the skimmer overflows. 1 Quote Link to comment

Yeah I noticed with this waterbox the level rises until I change the floss. It's a good reminder to change. 3 Quote Link to comment
EthanPhillyCheesesteak Posted August 13, 2019 Author Share Posted August 13, 2019 So I think that I fixed everything. So much water was lost that I pretty much made a 50% water change, so that should probably make my tank happy. Everything is fine, nothing died. Cleaned the filter, put in new filter floss. Cleaned the tank, everything looks good as of right now, but I’ll have to check back in the morning 4 Quote Link to comment
EthanPhillyCheesesteak Posted August 13, 2019 Author Share Posted August 13, 2019 Everything is great this morning, no more water loss, corals look really good too. They probably appreciated the big water change. I’ll get some pictures later tonight. 3 Quote Link to comment
EthanPhillyCheesesteak Posted August 14, 2019 Author Share Posted August 14, 2019 Picture time!! I do apologize, but I do have a little bit of green film algae on my sand. Also, the color on my scoly is really starting to show better. You can see the pinkish lines better. 4 Quote Link to comment

EthanPhillyCheesesteak Posted August 14, 2019 Author Share Posted August 14, 2019 And here’s a picture of those blue things that you all thought were star polyps. Some of them seemed to die off, but some of them stayed It’s hard to get a good picture of those bc of the angle Quote Link to comment
EthanPhillyCheesesteak Posted August 14, 2019 Author Share Posted August 14, 2019 Also, my gsp is growing quite a bit, but it’s closed up right now. It literally just closed up. As I was taking pictures😂 1 Quote Link to comment
