Flame on!

Flame on!

So awesome looking. I've had my flame wrasse for about 6 months now and it's finally starting to transition...getting a lot more yellow on it's belly. Really excited because they don't look all that exciting as females.

This one used to be a female... Until it usurped the current male and chased it out of the tank. They definitely are better looking as males.

How do you like the Alkatronic Ty?

How do you like the Alkatronic Ty?

It does its job. A tad loud but since it's in my fish room, I'm okay with that. There's a fix for it but been too busy to bother with it.

It says monthly calibrations but I haven't don't one in 3-4 months and double checked it against Hanna last week and was only off 0.2 dKh. I can live with that and plan to only calibrate every 6 months now.

Set and forget for me... That's how I like my equipment. Reagent is super cheap too.

congrats on the reef spotlight!

Question, how are you rotating the gyre flow every minute? Is it done through apex turning the power on and off or through the gyre controller?
I have 2 icecap 3k gyres. They are separate with 2 power supplies and I want to rotate through them.

Most likely the Newer Maxspect XF350's which with the controller you can set it to alternate two pumps.

That "levelling" timber under the front of the right frag tank gives me so much anxiety! What are you doing to me Ty!?!

Yesterday I accidentally dropped a frag on the biggest pumpkin and it poked a couple holes in it. Hopefully it comes back new and improved. It's currently sadly deflated. [emoji22]
