Look who is showing off with the aquarium app. Tank is looking good. When it starts to fill in it Will be quite the looker

I LOVE THAT APP!!!!

I LOVE THAT APP!!!!

It works way better then the polyp labs filter for me. Polyp labs over corrected so bad my sand looked like it was full of cyano.
Now go back to your thread we want to see what’s in the bags lol

What leopard did you get?
I’m trying to decide on 2 but can’t make up my mind

My coach @Scurvy helped me gather this new order! He been all over me today for updates! haha But hey, I appreciate all the help I can get!

I agree on the app VS the filter. The filer makes everything in my tank look way YELLOW!

 

[Scurvy]

Last few for today. Not great but okay.

Rich’s piece looking good.

Reef Raft something or other

Green Milli with skin turning a light pink

Bubble Gum

JF Solar Flare holding color and beginning to show a little growth. A little over filtered but closet to actual color than no filter so we’ll use it.

JF Dayglow had been in a shadow. Moved into more light today.

Jack o lantern growing well in the shade.

 

[SashimiTurtle]

Looking good!

Needed to harvest chaeto so we did a 20g water change this morning and pulled about half the chaeto ball. Say 2.5 gallons worth.

water still cloudy but corals seem to be snacking. At least those that were awake.

@NY_Caveman got a recipe for corey?

 

[RichtheReefer21]

Glad to see the purple/teal acro I gave ya is settling in well.

Heres what that chunk looked like when I brought it home about 7 months ago.

Im sure its gonna love your tank and care. Cant wait to see it take off for ya! Fish and all look great man.

 

[NY_Caveman]

Looking great Corey! No recipes for Chaeto. I always find just add tons of garlic and anything tastes great.

 

[Scurvy]

So it begins.... The Scurvy Method.

Triton Base with a Zeovit Kicker! Lets hope it’s as good as adding the Bacardi 151 to a scorpion bowl and leads to pure fire!

 

[RichtheReefer21]

Awesome. Are you gonna test your bacterial diversity with that mail-in gig? @Flippers4pups did his I believe. Just curious. Good luck with the ScurvStyle!

Maybe someday but not for a while if I do. Don’t know enough about it really or how I might remedy the findings should they be less than ideal, which I suspect they would be.

I'm getting ready to do another one soon.

 

[Scurvy]

I'm getting ready to do another one soon.

Did you make any changes/additions after the findings of the first?

I surely dont know enough about the various bacterial strains in our tanks to begin with let alone where I’d find sources of whatever might be lacking outside of old fashion Live Rock.

that said I did add a bunch of different things from IPSF.com with my refugium. I would hope their mud and bacterial cultures might be better than some/most off the shelf stuff but again I don’t know enough.

Perhaps that’ll be next in my casual self taught marine biology program

It showed I have cyanobacteria at high levels, but I have never seen any. Dosed chemi clean and have waited to do another test to see if things settle.

Wasnt today’s target but look who finally swam into the trap!

Had planned on getting the Long Nose Hawk and moving to Biocube.

 

[pelphrey]

I love it when a plan that wasn't a plan but became a plan even though you planned out the plan comes together!

 

[Scurvy]

My revamped plan fell apart however when we moved the new clown to the biocube! We placed him in the acclimation box and the little guy swam right through the open slots and out into the real world!

Hoping the 4x larger female accepts him!
