Schnitzel's SPS

Fishnugget · Jul 9, 2017

Schnitzel, do you still have that planet earth tenius? I want a frag.

Take a pic of it. Have you been able to pull out the green? Is it the tenius next to the SC orange passion?

The more pictures and videos I see of your tank, the prettier it is. Just amazing colors, so fun to see what you have accomplished. I am impressed with your ability to get the colors, growth and maturity. the tank is quite an inspiration.

That one is easy, I wouldn't run an sps dominant tank with out a calcium reactor.

I have been dosing for years but my ALK always is changing, up and down, up and down. I think it's time to look into a reactor..

You won't regret it. Just take the time to understand how it works.

My reefbrites run 14 hours
2 bulbs 10 hours
And all 8 bulbs for 7 hours.

I used to do 8, but I recently cut it back to 7 to see if I noticed any difference. Figured it will save me some electricity. I might even try 6 hours if everything still looks good.

as always very nice and congrats on the magazine!

Are you still dosing nitrates and phols extra or did you stop them?

What is an update on where you keep your alk and calc? Still between 7-8, is it usually closer to 7 or 8?

New toy for my fuge. 90w Kessil H350

Got it for $80 on eBay.

If any of you watched BRS' video on which light worked best at growing chaeto, this one was the clear winner. But the main reason I am getting it is for PH. In BRS' test, the tank with the kessil had a super high PH. I'm gunna see if this makes any impact on raising the ph in my tank.
