The next change I have made is to add a grow out rack for frags as I always hated the look of having a frag rack in the display.

I have also hooked up a GFO reactor and have been running it on occasion if I see my phosphate number climbing. I decided to just let it sit in the sump to make it easy to change and not splash water everywhere.

The final piece of equipment I decided to change was to simplify my algae scrubber and use a plastic container from Target with 2 LED grow lights instead of some leftover lights I was using with the glass fish tank. The results have been great and I usually harvest once a week.

Looks like lots of positive changes recently, I'm happy to see it's all working so well for you. I've always wanted to do an aquarium with solar tubes, I'd be curious what the PAR looks like throughout the day.

I used to have a pair of genicanthus melanospilos in my 180, they're some of the best angels for a reef tank in my opinion!
