Unsolicited advice, stay away from the UC one
 
I bought a Gold tip hammer from them. I don't even think it is gold .01%

I don't have the original UC photo. I never felt conned until buying from them and JKR's. The colors are not even close!

After picking up the pectinia from Franks, I understand why filters are needed. While the pectinia is not true orange, it is a yellow/orange mix coated by green hue. Best viewed under actinics. The filter is the only work around. Kind of saddens me.
 
I need some hints on making splits. 1 x feeding caused him to poop day and night.
Water change with elevated parameters always worked for me, I also fed mine defrosted scallop pieces every few days. I would go to the store and ask for one scallop, the butcher always gave me a squirly look for that hah. Take it home chop it into many pieces and freeze till your ready to feed.
 
That is green overload. I am trimming the same greens down. Different greens are fine. But, when it all looks the same. I have to change it up.
Well, it's my first torch in the tank, the Rhodactis are gorgeous in the pics they showed - one with red and one with purple, I don't have any mint green, and the Electric Daisy is the last Stylo I wanted. I'm hoping I don't over green my tank, but it's too late for that! I have a ton of orange, red, and purple already.

Over green isn't a thing. If you find yourself with too many very in greens, at in orange, red and yellow to balance.

These this morning. Empty side on my left island. A patch of algae between the trachy and cyna. Big issue, I will get to it today. Probably means next month. Waiting on ups to pick up a package because amazon sent the wrong item. I hate you amazon!

Did water tests today, algae spot called for it. After a few weeks of dosing All for reef. Parameters did not go down using the minimum recommended dosage. 5 ml of All-For-Reef per 100 liters (26 US-gal) I have 112g system. So aprox 25ml. Last day I tested was

Today SG 1.026 Calcium 400 - mag 1320 - alk 7.6 . ph under .05 nitrates are under 20.
Increasing dose to 30ml.
Water change after UPS gets here.
