Pete polyp's 29 mixed reef

Yeah I saw you had a tank recently break... Believe it or not it makes my heart sink when I see that.... Not just yours but everyone that had a major crash.
 
This birdsnest is really liking the new bulb combo

The Ph was a little high today (8.54) and I calibrated and checked my refractometer today and it's a tad high too (1.027). I changed 4 gallons of water today to try and bring them both down a bit and it didn't effect the Ph much. If this keeps up I will have to reduce the amount of kalk I'm putting in the mix. The green planet acro I bought Friday is looking a little beat up and worries me just a little. Either it will pull through or die I guess. I think it had to do with a ginormous alk swing recently. When I checked it was right around 6, and I have brought it back up to around 9 in the past 4 days. A couple others look a little beat up too, but they're strong ones and I see them pulling through.
 
sweet setup...after being out of the hobby for 3 years or so, the 29 I first started up sparked my reef addiction back up to the max lol
 
Thanks! It's a very simple setup with livestock packed in there lol. It shouldn't be much longer and most of the sps will be moved to their own tank. A couple are attached to rocks and will probably remain in there, but most will be moved. I have several acan that have been sitting in frag racks just waiting to find their place in this tank. Hopefully all goes well and in about a month I will be able to transfer everything I'm wanting moved.
 
I had an acro arrive this morning from divers den. They put the bag in sideways and the top of the coral was out of the water. All of the tips are pretty banged up. This is not what I'm use to seeing from these guys and I'm kinda disappointed. Guess I will just have to wait and see what happens

In all seriousness.... I'm very very happy with the acro from hybridazn. They are very colorful, healthy and packaged with great care. Thanks so much (again)

Great looking little tank. A 29G, T-5's and HOB filter is what got me back into the hobby full swing with my big tank. You're doing it right. :)

I am dead serious - the one we FINALLY seem to have running safely (I won't be able to relax and trust it for a few weeks, after everything >.> ) is our fourth try at getting a good used acrylic tank.
 
Sounds like my 40.... None have broken with water in it or anything. 1 was broken while in the hands of the guy who built the overflow and sump. He messed up the overflow and I had to fix that, then the ato reservoir broke, then 2 baffles....
