Biocube 16 tank build

Well if your gonna start fragging your AOIs you should share!
Hahaha they're not cheap! I paid $86 for 4 polyps and that was an ebay auction. Are you planning on fragging any of yours? Maybe we could trade.

I love the ones right below your Clown in the first picture the red ones. I've got some of the Star Gazer Zoas too! It's hard for me to get good pictures even with my gel filters for my camera. Some pictures are no filter some orange filter some yellow filter. My new UV light makes it really difficult to take pictures but it makes my corals absolutely gorgeous!

So I decided to do this

please don’t judge me for my API! I didn’t realize how the bad they suck. But I can’t throw them out they are there until I get all my other testing stuff it.
I’m really hoping to find out about the exact idip and just get that

Niiiice! Lol I won't judge you for it, how are you supposed to know? Everyone begins somewhere. I assume it was a typo you said something about an"idip"? What did you mean to say?
 
@Luckyduck check it out

Hmmmm interesting. Never heard of them. Don't forget your Magnesium test kit. Seems like a lot of money though! You already have a Hanna Alk don't you? Definitely use that over any test it. Those are the most accurate you'll get.

I have a mag test by nyos.

I was consideringgetting all the other Hanna checkers.

They're great. I have 3. Phosphates, Alk & and Nitrites which I use to check Iodine (it's a hack using Red Sea Iodine reagents). I'll buy the Calcium one as soon as my Red Sea runs out. I would just stick with Hanna and Nyos or Red Sea for what you can't get in Hanna. The Red Sea Mag test sucks! You definitely did good getting the Nyos. Red Sea is a pain!
 
Update
Got my new cycled rocks in the tank.
Did a round of chemiclean. As I was starting to see the beginning of cyno.
Frags are on racks as my rbta is still getting settled in from the rock swap

Ok so I think I’m finally happy with the landscape. I haven’t put all my zoas were they will end up yet because my nem isn’t feeling well and has been isolated to a cup.
Here are some pictures

Ok so update time. I’ve recently purchased a black widow anemone from @footgal and it is absolutely stunning. I also pitched a few zoas and some more cloves. I’ll post pictures now and maybe a few more later when I get home and everything is awake.

this morning I also fed my new nem and she was very happy to gobble it up.

also I noticed last night my purple hammer now has two mouths!
