I just got a harlequin shrimp, to help eradicate the asterina starfish issue! Hopefully it puts them down.

Waterchange day

I have the a.i primes ramped up and color matching the kessils the best I can, when the t5's are on everything blends good with less shadows on the ends.

 

[thatmanMIKEson]

So I've ramped up my lights quite a bit, im not sure of par numbers, kessils are at 97% and a.i primes are putting out 44w each plus new t5's.

I need more light in/on the back wall

Lights going out coral pop time!

nice one spot foxface! I just got a Lo in from Live Aquaria - came in great shape. He is still pretty sketched-out - have him in QT with blanket over. matched temp and salinity. I should have checked Ph. I think he'll make it; just hates me - stays camouflaged with spikes out when he sees me.

Mine too for the first month until he figured out im the food guy, they eat like pigs and love food. But he was very skiddish the first month always in camo mode.

Just added some more flow with the redsea reefwave 25 on gyre. I also have another A.I prime coming this week

Wifi "sump cam". I use them for checking on the dogs now I have one in my sump, I can leave it off and turn it on when I want on the app, its a kasa camera, im not sponsored but i definitely recommend these cameras.

I got the 3rd A.I prime mounted and angled to the back of the tank, it lights the back row up good I may need another one in the future, there are just to many shadows with these single point lights and I can only mount the kessils in the middle, so for now its looking really good but when things start blocking light it may be a different story.

Thats 3 kessil 360's 3 A.i primes 2 ati blue plus and 2 ati true actinic's to round out the lighting situation 11.5 total light hours

 

[thatmanMIKEson]

Everything looks good I put the A.I's on an acclamation period for a week probably didn't need to but everything looks good no ill effects, it really adds some light where it was lacking on the back rocks, im glad I did it.
