So I got the last parts of Triton up and running. I added two powerheads to the sump sections for flow one being a MJ 1200 in the fuge for vacuuming purposes. Cheato is in and lights are live. I started the dosing at 3ml of each per day so we will see how it goes

Oh I also shortened up the filter pad because it was way too big to easily get in and out to clean.

I love the way the floating cabinet looks. You gave me ideas... I can hear the wife groaning already! ;Hilarious

 

[Tbird2101]

Haha im with you. Getting your wife to accept what we do is a lot like fish acclamation. Slow and steady

Ok so my new test kits are slowly rolling in. The ones I had were expired . Phosphate should be in tomorrow, nitrate and Mag on Monday. My Alk is up to around 8.6 from 7, calc is up to 407 and PH is hovering between 8.1 and 8.17. I am gettin gthem back in line slowly (been about 2 weeks since I started raising them). Cheato is growing in the fuge and the algae in the display is slowly dwindling. I would say its about 30% of what it was. Hopefully a couple more weeks and were good to go.

Got the ATO container swapped and the new Apex mounted. I still have to swap everything over fron the Apex Jr but I feel like all the hard stuff is done finally. Lol
