oo I didnt know they're supposed to stay horizontal. I've got mine @85 degrees and it seems to work ok. but yes! would love to see what you've got; if you've needed it, probably someone else does too! will give you royalties in the form of ParlaCredits™. lol

I think you've already cashed in more ParlaCredits than I could ever earn!

Long travel day.

Switzerland to home. 19 hours from house to bed.

Tank made it a full 16 days with help from house sitter throwing pellets twice a day.

Alk refill and testing reagent ran out.

Everything looks super healthy, has grown. Dirty glass.

Maybe test tomorrow see where we are . Threw some trace and calcium in tonight since it def needs it.

Good night.

Next reefing update will be the cable management.

Probably will have time this week to cut the holes and start passing things through eventually.

 

[Nate Chalk]

Ready to drill the corner hole and get to cutting.

Other side is thick wall panels.

Lil high and of course behind a pole. Just going to be a little bit straining to run them


But it'll look clean that way I guess. Positive thinking

First tests in awhile, Just checking Phos and Nitrate

Phos read at 0.62?!
Nitrate 31.7?


Coral is looking real nice though and growing. Ran outta reagent for calcium and alk tests. Gotta re order some.

I can do water changes again?! no way.

Going to prep one tonight for tomorrow. Yippy
