Greetings from Germany

Next in the row are the problems as well as the supplementation of the setup.
First of all, in my old setup, there were a lot of troublemakers in it such as Amakusaplana Acroporea (AEFW), Aiptasia and Valonia Macrophysa.
How did I get rid of the AEFW? Easy thing: 1) Frag the Coral and remove the substrate, as well as all without the coral tissue. 2) Dip the Coral in The Dip (Fauna Marin) in my case it works well (I tried it on the AEFW, removed one from the sup and put the predator in a cup with tank water for 24h. The AEFW was still dead. Keep in mind, when you remove all from the coral, that has no tissue on it you remove also the eggs.
By the way, the rest (Aiptasia and Valonia Macrophysa) also did not move to the new tank, when you do this procedure of cutting. There is my older tank before I moved it all in the new. Okay, somewhere sold, because I didn't like them.

Hallo und danke, hat mich sehr viel nerven gekostet.
I'm really happy with the reef, it combined all of my experiences I've made with the reefing hobby.
I was born in Leverkusen and lived some time in cologne.
Nerves about what, did you worry as the water went in..... watching the frame of your stand closely.
 
Hello again,
Now I've time to post some updates. Unfortunately, I was really busy last months. I fought with Dinos and cyanos. Now the pest is gone and I changed the nutrition system from Sangokai Basic to Sangokai HED. The corals grow very fast, as well as get the right nutrition to synthesise the chromatin pigments.
 
Tank looks great I am not sure about the nutrition you ate using l. Maybe about the same as Triton but it's working

It's different to Triton. Sangokai supplies the hole tank not only the corals with essential elements and nutrition. It's more like a buffet for the bacteria micro and macro fauna.
I've used Triton for many years, but I've never seen such an easy success like I have with Sangokai
