This guy is extra salty Posted August 24, 2019 Author Share Posted August 24, 2019 I have been so busy lately it’s been hard to keep up with things.literally like a chicken with its head cut off. Here is a recent FTS i decided to take the lid off this week cause when I was plucking hair algae out the water was quite warm. Like sitting in the Pacific Ocean 🌊 and someone peed next to you warm (yea gross right?) so I’m trying it out without the diffuser for a couple weeks. As for an update of the corals. Everything is doing wonderfully. Except for my trials of SPS, birdsnests and montipora don’t like the V3. I am not going to waste my sweet acroporas, in the slow torture of the V3. Probably cause I deemed it a soft coral tank... also im still battling hair algae.. maybe I should add some more macro algae? 5 Quote Link to comment
seabass Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Can we get a closer shot of that algae? I can't see if that's bryopsis or just hair algae. Quote Link to comment

This guy is extra salty Posted August 24, 2019 Author Share Posted August 24, 2019 On the topic of algae. my 160 has something I would call an outbreak .😷 which I believe the contest tank caught. Because of the AWC. It drains and pulls fresh water from the sump of the 160. I love the auto aqua smart ATO/AWC, seriously a genius gadget for your reef. But now I’m headed out to grab a better CUC. 🤦♂️ Quote Link to comment
seabass Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Maybe bryopsis (possibly Bryopsis pennata), not sure. 1 Quote Link to comment
Wonderboy Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Does not look like bryopsis to me 1 Quote Link to comment
A.m.P Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Hmmmm... I'm not sure if microdosing peroxide would be advisable with larger macroalgae, they would probably weather it just fine but you never know, spot dipping would be difficult too because palys and mushrooms HATE peroxide even if they can deal with it... 1 Quote Link to comment

I would but im not going to risk it another (one) snail will be fine I’m thinking an astrea or trochus... so I went to a LFS today and walked away with 150$ less than I did before. The ole lady was a bit greedy 😝 we picked up: 1 pencil urchin 5 nassarius snails 5 trochus snails 5 astrea snails 1 (large) yellow tang a lobo (great price) a large colony of stylophora I really wanted this gorgonian but the lady wasn’t feeling it 1 Quote Link to comment

This guy is extra salty Posted September 1, 2019 Author Share Posted September 1, 2019 This has been a fun couple of days 20 mins at four hour intervals ill be making a video of it I’ll try not to do an 😈 evil laugh 😂 Back to the old school reef! What is odd for me is that I have never had to “clean the glass” Those 🐌 snails do some work maybe I’ll add another trochus.. or Cerith. I’m at 5 snails 😂 maybe I should add a 🦀 crab? 🤷♂️ 2 Quote Link to comment

This guy is extra salty Posted September 3, 2019 Author Share Posted September 3, 2019 Unfortunately I think I did over use the wand which may have caused one of my acro colonies to RTN. I’m sending in an ICP test tomorrow ( so I can have a baseline) mainly I have been waiting to pull the trigger on a clam. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
