Hello All,
I wanted to start by saying that I came to the Frag workshop and had a wonderful time. I was really impressed with how friendly everyone was and it made me realize I have so much more to learn about this hobby. It came at a really great time too because I was feeling very bad about my aquarium in general. We had contractors working on our kitchen and they unplugged the tank, killing half my tank. I felt really bad about it because I kept thinking of the things I could have done different to avoid it. So the frag workshop got me feeling excited about my aquarium again.
The contractors are giving me $250 as an apology for killing half my tank. I didn't have much in the tank to start with. I lost my blue Tuxedo Urchin and my Coral Beauty. I would like to try and improve my tank and had a few ideas of how to use the money. But I was hoping for some advice. My current tank specs are at the bottoms.
I also just sent out a some water for a ICP test. Should hear back on that soon.
I had a few ideas
1. A new Blue Tuxido Urchin
2. Getting a Clean up crew package
3. Getting Cheato to put in my sump. (I tried this before and it got sucked into the skimmer, so I will need some adjustments)
4. A charcoal reactor
But I am open to any other advice on what I should look at upgrading first.
Here is my current tank
2 Percula Clownfish, some red digi frags, misc zoa frags.
70gallon Display, with 55g tank converted to a sump.
Apex Controller, Protein Skimmer, Heater
Vortech MP40,
Two Rapid Light LEDs for display and a PAR38 Refugium Light
ATO using a bucket and a float valve
