It's nice to see a reef thriving. We have much to learn.
I'm constantly learning when it comes to this hobby and I try to share as much as I can. I think that is why I love it so much. Well, along with the fact that the tank is just beautiful.

You are very humble, even in person.
Thank you. It's not often I hear that, people often claim to find me intimidating, which I just don't see.

Nah, not at all. I am betting people maybe shared that you were intimidating until they got to know you, maybe? People don't tell Folks they were intimidated by them unless they are no longer intimidated. Ya know?

Absolutely. I've had multiple people who are now friends tell me that. I just don't see it and when I ask them about it, they can't explain it.

I know... I've been slacking. Trying to adjust to my new normal while working on the kitchen. The reef tank is still doing great. I really should up my dosing by another 20ml but the KH Director is holding it close enough for now.

So... the update for today? I just got an email letting my know my calcium reactor has shipped! I'll stop and pick up a CO2 cannister on my way home one day this week. Other than for some possible tubing and fittings, I should have everything I need for when it gets here. I CANT WAIT!!!

Very interested in how your Calcium Reactor works out! Tank continues to impress.
Thanks. Tracking shows that it should be here tomorrow. By the end of the weekend I should be able to post a complete list of all the parts I should have had on hand but didn't think about! ;Facepalm

The calcium reactor came in yesterday. I unpacked it and quickly realized something. I never picked up tubing to connect the CO2 cylinder to the reactor. Oops. It looks like Lowe's carries something that will work so I'll drop by there on my way home from work to pick it up.
Otherwise, I think I actually have everything after doing a quick layout.

The reactor itself looks amazing, just like everything else I have gotten from @AVAST Marine
It's going to hurt to put the hard, rough, reactor media in it. ;Blackeye It's like scuffing up a piece of art. My initial thought was to put it under the stand but now I'm trying to think of some way to make it a display outside my sump area.

Anyway, I'll update with pictures either tonight or tomorrow when I start working on it.
