An update! The tank is doing well, Finally noticing growth on my SPS pieces. I ended up with spiulina and not dinos, a chemi clean treatment and they are gone. Here are quite a few cell phone photos, hopefully I can borrow a camera again soon.
Probably the best macro photo I've ever taken. This is just the outer ring of an acan
I've also been noticing all of these little hair algaes, Im really hoping its not what it could be

Photo Update!
New FTS, The camera focused on the fish so the corals are blurry but whatevs
This poor guy STN'd or bleached out but stopped and hasn't gotten any worse in a long time. Now the little nub is looking better than the piece has in a long time!
Montipora Pic for Ken
First Addition. Hairy lil guy
Raspberry Mille, starting to encrust on the rock
A little acro shot
And some Rics
Tested the water today Calcium was low around 400ppm so I upped it to around 440ppm per BRS calculator as well as upped Mg from 1200ppm to 1300ppm. For some reason my Magnesium drops pretty fast, I might have to hook it up to the doser here soon.
Overall I have been really happy with how the tank has been in the last few days. I've been dosing NoPox, 1ml a day for about 2 weeks now and am going to cut back to .5ml per day now that my nitrates are sitting lower.

Lol sorry mate. Cool!
This is my first reef tank and I haven't used any other lights before so I have nothing to compare it to. I mean the light works and its growing things I think lol. But on a serious note, I think for the price it works just fine. It has great control ability once you get it hooked up to the AI App or on your PC. I would recommend it to a newer reefer who is looking to save a few bucks but still wants to be able to grow almost anything.

I just bought one of these and was thinking about upgrading to a sicce or jebao dc1200. Is the stock pump loud? The tanks on my work desk so wanted to get an idea on sound

I ditched my ghost...not for the sound, but it didn't work...one of members gave me a cheap little Coralife Bio-Cube skimmer...works great, thick, dry foam, no bubbles in the tank..works on a wooden air-stone...as he says..."old school"...but perfect for the 10...
