Thanks! It's not that hard once you finally get to this stage in a new tank. It's dialed in. Just feed, change filter sock, clean skimmer and water change about 10 gals a week. And scrape the glass cause those tangs love the scrapings! And make sure the two part bottles stay full...

And of course keep your eyes open for pests. I've had aefw a few times, i'm a bit lazy about dipping and have no quarentine[emoji33]

Very very nice tank man. Would you mind sharing your light graph. Would love to see how your running intensities.

naso tang · Oct 31, 2015

Sure here you go. I have to check to see how i'm running the t5s now. Think i've got two 48" ati blue plus, a kz figi pink, and maybe 1 aquablue special for white. Run those maybe 5 hrs during peak.
Looks a little funky on the red channel, gotta fix that.

Thanks, i'm kinda bored with the big colonies. I've saturated my local market with frags. I've got some hot frags right now that hopefully take off. Like juicy fruit. Been waiting for that one like 2 years...

Very nice. Great progress you have made. So you do not run ULNS anymore? Do you carbon dose at all? If not what are you doing to remove nitrate and phosphates?
And subscribed!

Thanks. No, i only tried ulns for about 6 mos i think several years ago.. Don't use carbon except in emergencies. I don't know what my nitrate levels are, it's been along time since i've run that test, but i have a chaeto and red macro fuge, a massive protein skimmer, and i occasionally dose lanthium chloride or whatever those phosphate reducing solutions are. This is really just because i use and store scripps water. Tests show this water is low alk, low mag and a little extra phosphate, probably from bacterial die off. So we socal reefers boost it and deplete when we water change.

Change the filter sock once a week. Clean the skimmer when it needs it. 15 gal water changes once a week. A massive brute can ato that feeds rodi water.

The reef raft monti could be arranged although i've never shipped. There's a line for juicy fruit, i can't keep track of how many want that one. If it ever becomes fraggable, i might be able to pass it around. Maybe 6 more months, it still hasn't really fully developed yet.
