question tho how do you combat algae with the red leds being up so high?

 

[jcdeng]

This is some next level stuff, I am pretty sure you spend a lot of time on maintaining your tank to keep it so spotless.

Question: Have you ever or never had any aiptasia problem? if you did, how did you rid of it?

I really don't get much, just some bubble algae here and there. I think if the situation is right for algae, it will grow with or without red light.

I had aiptasia get away from me a little this summer. I normally managed with Aiptasia-X, but there were only so many I could get to. I added a dozen large berghia nudibranch to the right rock structure and they were completely eradicated within a couple months. The berghia never crossed the sand bed to the other side of the tank and I think have since died off, so eventually the aiptasia will repopulate. I think I'll add them again in a year or so to both rocks simultaneously and see if I can eradicate them all. They're not cheap but they were effective for me.

This is awsome! Does your green slimer reach all the way to the water surface?

Fancy seeing you here Yeah there are 4 or 5 branches that break the surface now.

Nice! I had a few branches that were about 2" from the top but I had some dosing issues that hurt alot of my acros so I had to trim them back a bunch. I think I saw your build here before it was on the MN forum. Sure is awsome seeing all these top caliber set ups coming from the northern region

New shots are great! Certainly different but elegant -- well done.
