I dreamed last night but I don't remember what I dreamt about... I'd love to win the light. I could sure use it for the center section of the 125.... But the other two prizes would be great as well.

Ooh love the RFA, torch and is that a pink chalice? Nice haul!

Thank you! It looks like you managed to snag some great corals too! But yes, it’s their captain marvel chalice! Been eyeing it for a while now and luckily they threw a couple in this sale!

I just pushed my ship date from Friday to Tuesday to try and get the tank a little better off.
I am seeing steady improvement in Calcium and Magnesium was just up to Cal 400 and Mag of 1200 but dosed again tonight so expect to be closer to 410 and 1250 now

Ann has been super helpful.
I was excited to get my first Hanna Checker yesterday for Phosphate but unfortunately I cannot for the life of me unscrew the battery compartment - the screw is stripping from my attempts, it is STUCK!
So now I still have no way to measure phosphate until I order a new one or get this figured out.
It makes sense to me that I may also have some readable Nitrate if the Phosphate improves, so will keep an eye on that. I am taking the Chemipure blue out tomorrow to see if that helps the situation.

Contact Hanna. Their customer service is top notch!

I also managed to catch a flatworm on one of my new hammers so very happy to have seen it to get rid of him!
That hammer was still doing fine but I have to wonder since I got both hammers from the same LFS that maybe the head of the hammer that is dying was already going down before I got it which is a shame. The 2nd head on this one is looking good through so fingers crossed I can hide the dead skeleton somehow as I otherwise like the hammer.

So excited to see the corals come out of the box today

 

[Mschmidt]

Lights come on in an hour. coral has been dipped and acclimated.

 

[Elise_]

Do you all reduce your lights when you put new corals in?

 

[Mschmidt]

I used to. Now I don't. Just do it before they come on. My lights are probably lower than the vendors anyway.

 

[Kathy Floyd]

I am thrilled with my order! The Ricordea is huge and the RFA's are doing nicely.

 

[ReefHunter07]

Gonna turn the UV light down a tad for a few days and slowly bring it back up. My tanks are primarily just blue with 1% white so I don’t mess with the light much.

 

[Mschmidt]

alright, her you all go.
the box:

a whole mess of coral.
Lights out, dipped and acclimating. two more full frag racks:

Under blues:

And the closeups:

So excited. I have had freak hair in and out of my cart for 3 sales now. That lightning Goniastrea is so bright!

Freak Hair is number 1 on my list when I know I won't (hopefully) kill it. Those frag racks are beautiful! Customize them "MS Frags" or something next time?
