If I recall correctly did you just throw them on the 200L sps preset or did you end up making your own all-wave program, as I recall you were a fan of that mode lol. I have one on 100L and the other on 200L SPS preset. I initially had both on 200L, but reduced one when I added the clowns. But I am tempted to beef up the wave modes b/c I like that mode the best. Just gotta remember how to work the app (I have a terrible time with it). 1 Quote Link to comment

I'm amazed your animals put up with that much flow though, that's pretty remarkable, I guess most just blows around the rockwork and the livestock is concentrated around the island?

Really hate the app. I was actually thinking about bumping both up to 200l recently . But if you recall, I had one of the Aqamais in my pico. 😄 Things seem fine, but yeah I don't really have low flow areas and a baby OG bounce mushroom did float away to who knows where. 😢 1 Quote Link to comment
A.m.P Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 To level my mushrooms seem pissy with a single aqamai @ 50% or so (mostly the smooth flow-pattern at that, well it's like 50-50 smooth+ random and wave) lol. 1 Quote Link to comment

Tigahboy Posted October 31, 2019 Author Share Posted October 31, 2019 Happy Halloween!! Also does anyone else think my fungia plates look out of place in this tank? Or if you have a suggestion on where to place them in here, I'm all ears. 4 1 Quote Link to comment

A.m.P Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 I would be more than happy to relieve you of it as an act of charity if need be, it is very bright though... Why not try putting it near the rock-overhang and the branching gsp? Could also work well underneath the duncans, to the left of the alveopora. Fungia are so difficult since you can't plop them onto rockwork like litho's or chalices... 1 1 Quote Link to comment

billygoat Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Ooh, Bryothamnion! That's a good one. It's super hardy, but prone to being covered in epiphytes. If too much hair algae starts to grow on it you can put it in a dark area (like your rear chambers) for a couple of days to kill off the pests that grow on it. Can't wait to see them in the tank! 😊 4 Quote Link to comment

Very nice. Unfortunately, none of the new macroalgae look that great. For whatever reason shipping took extra long and the box was all beat up, so things started to decline. Thanks, USPS! Hopefully some will pull through tho. 2 Quote Link to comment
