It's Just a Tank

[NowGlazeIT]

I wonder if the starfish is that good of a cleaner. Maybe explains my bristle worm population as well. I don't think they would keep numbers low.

It’s everybody because the stuff we test for is all residual. It’s elements the tank has yet to consume. I believe you have a high in and high out system which can hold some really cool cuc

Do you dose nitrifying bacteria @Mibu?

nope. Just all for reef. Stopped water changes as well. Since April I believe?

Bio reactor sits behind the skimmer already although to be quite honest, I'm not sure it does much.

Initial Thought was to reroute the secondary drain from the main tank, into the stand alone fuge, and just plumb through the glass to dump back into the sump in the filter sock compartment. There's plenty of room.

Got that vecton from @sp1187 on a steal. It's a great unit.

did me a solid by buying it.

Here's the amount they get. Its about the size of a mysis block.

Small feeding okay so it’s not a high import as much as it’s a slooooow steady import

Yes it is. Hoping it grows all over the rock.

Is this in your main display area?

Are any of your omnivores nibbling at it?

I'm thinking I'd like some in the main display as well as the Nem tank, but worried it will just get mowed down.

In the sump portion. I may need to remove the asternia starfish. Looks like it is grazing on the algae. The Scopa and blenny would have it all gone in the main tank. Not safe there at all.

That's what I feared

I have seen amazing refugium designs. The husband will not allow me to have an over the top of the tank fuge. I love plants. I am probably going to clean up around the red algae. And maybe, remove that door. It needs to be aligned right.

My wife wants me to do an HOB mangrove garden on the 125 once it's set up. Several of my freshwater tanks have those Lucky Bamboo growing in HOBs, but those don't require light. From what I understand mangroves require kind of intense lighting.

What kind is it I may look into getting some for my fuge.

Gracilaria I believe. Very rich in red.

I've gotten this from online and the lfs. It would not grow for me. In less than a week it would die.
A better pic. @Lost in the Sauce. It's growing well.

And waiting in these guys to recover from fragging.

I'll have to check it out!

This is where hana can help. I could ask "alexa" hey alexa, what color is this?

She'd probably say "there's a hana checker for that dummy".


Doesn't really have a green tint. Plenty of things to bring up phosphate. Not enough for nitrates.


I believe we are at 2.

If alexa was a man she'd be color blind.

If Alexa was a man, I would punch him in the face for the amount of times it butts into conversations he has no right to be in

 

[Goaway]

Poor alexa... I never used you. Ever...
On a side note. I feel color blind now.
Baby hammers! A lot of them too. Where this plan blugly failed to keep splitting and making new heads. All kinds of babies everywhere.

Ready to go to a new home.

Yumas are still ..... No pics, they in a bad mode. Might be for days more to come.

Lobo is gaining, weird texture.... I always thought they were of a warty skin, and not those line formations simular to tracyphylia. It has grooves.


So pretty, but top down gets the best colors. I may cut it in half in a few months.
