Finally some Acropora in this thread!

If you meant the purple one when we talked earlier that's an Acropora nana. Looks good!

I really like the green Stylopora. Nice colour and shape. An underestimated coral IMO.

My hats off to you! What a beautiful tank and its so unique! I just love how most stuff is growing off of the wall making it look like your sitting at the bottom of a reef ledge. Corals look very very happy. I will have to try and skim through the thread when I get time.

Thanks a lot - I love a natural look - do not like the normal high status "little boxes" garden style

Hi Lasse, the substrate grain size on the top layer of your RDSB, would you recommend less than 1mm or something larger like 1mm-2mm ? It looks like you didn't use exactly sugar size, if that is true, is that because it's reverse flow ?

Lasse · Jan 1, 2019

I think it is 1-2 mm. The reason - I had a lot

I normally do not like sugar size grains - it get a little to compact for me in the long run. In this case with reverse flow it could give some dust moving around too.

Now I'm leaving for a vacation in Italy. The aquarium will be free from me for two weeks.

We are soon leaving Vienna for Venice. We will cross the Alps/Dolomites. Yesterday we visit a public aquaria in Wien - Hause des Meeres. I was impressed of some of the tanks. It was the normal - Europe dull - standard of the large tanks. Large fishes, to many fishes and small tanks. Some good rock works - but the same I has seen at many places. But there was some very good tanks - a tank with Atlantic Sea Horses and a tank with non photosyntetic corals. The last one was heavy populated with sun corals and some other interesting corals. The tank was full of garden eels of many species, some P.tuka and some sand shifting fishes. That tank was world class I think.

They are constructing a new coral tank of 10 000 litres and I hope it will be better than the two existing today. They was not bad but at normal Europan standard. By mistake - I forgot my camera - pictures are taken by my mobil and not very good

Thank you all

The result you can see here

What it say - I´m not really sure Total N is 1.88 ppm and my read NO3 (Red SEA Pro) was 6 - it means that a part of the analysed N was in other forms - probably organic forms. My P value was rather high and my measured PO4 was 0.1 (Hanna Low Phosphate) even here - there is a surplus of P - probably organic forms. I feed the aquaria with around 75 ml juice (Jomama juice every night (juice done by mixing Chaeto) IMO - with this in mind - my TOC was low - around 7.5 mg/l

However - m

ost important -- I have these figures in spite of the fact that my aquaria looks good I think I need some more measurements in order to understan and use this new tool

Sincerely Lasse

Lasse do Triton also give advice/dosing recommendations like they do with the normal icp tests ..?
