Picked up some LRS reef frenzy this past weekend, everything loves it!

LRS is great stuff! Been feeding that since the begining.

I’ve wanted to get some for awhile, just didn’t want to pay the shipping on it! $25 locally, so not a bad price I don’t think.

Thats about what I pay too. Good you found it local.

Today was a semi sad day... I traded my clown fish in, they were my very first fish. But they started to attack any and every new fish added to the tank. So they had to go. I picked up another yellow wrasse, yellow tang and flame hawkfish. I’ve wanted this hawkfish for a long long time. Since the LFS had one I had to have it!

LRS reef frenzy time!

Pretty sad AND aggravated to post this picture. This green skimmer has been in my tank since January I believe. It’s not really grown but it hasn’t died like all the other SPS I try to keep. Until the last few days.... I’m totally stunned why I can’t keep sps. I plan to do a full teat of my tank this weekend.

 

[Scurvy]

Hate to see that.... I know how much effort you've put in to keeping SPS and for whatever reason it keeps going south on you. Wish I had something to share.

Looking good Pelphrey. I see you have two tangs in there. Do they get along? Since I upgraded, I now have 3 and two of them “play around” but nothing crazy.

I’ve not seen any issues between them. They just hang out and mind their own business!

New sump going on! Also took the time to clean the Nyos 120 and Neptune cor20! All new filters and membrane came in from spectrapure!

Wait, what? Didn’t you just change the sump a couple of month ago ?

I did! @Crystal Reef Aquatics added 1” to the return and skimmer chamber. This took 1” from the refugium but I am fine with that! So the refugium is now smaller but the return and skimmer chambers are bigger!

Gotcha!

 

[DangSoGood]

Will Crystal Reef Aquatics be changing the dimensions going forward or was this a one off custom?

 

[Crystal Reef Aquatics]

We did! The new dimensions are on the website and all new orders are shipping with the new spec.

If the kids would leave it alone I’d take the cabinet doors off!

Mid February to mid April and the mp10’s are covered in purple... and a little bubble algae!
