good to see you Frank, frags look good, didnt do the pick up because it took me way to long to go over the bridge, Got to Franks at like 4pm, 2 hours later than expected. John'shouse was another 30 min and we were shot. I just wanted to get home at that point. I hope the Diablo does better for you Frank

OG golden banshee took a couple of steps back. It was stung really bad, so it's trying to heal itself while growing a new eye. Trying to feed it a little and see if it can help but at times it doesn't even try. The diablo (now in my tank) is sitting in the shade and I'm not sure it's faring much better yet. Have to wait a few days and see how it adjusts. I did a 10 percent water change yesterday and salinity dropped a point so I'm going to get it back up by doing salt water top offs. I think I'm going to cut back a little on feedings to maybe 3-4 a week and start running some filter pads to clean up the water a bit. I did so before (hassle) but now I'm feeding a lot more and the critters have come a crawling :( Too many pods and such for my taste. The fnf goku is looking better but still to small and struggling. If everything remains steady it should be ok. Bay corals planet earth is coming in tomorrow so I'll take a picture once it's in the light (this weekend). Testing as we speak so I'll post up some numbers.

Salinity 1025-1026
alk 8
ph 8.1
calcium 450
Magnesium 1500

Numbers are decent, even after water change. Mag is a little high but I believe chalices like it at those levels. Everything is steady as she goes. Did some cleaning yesterday and need to run some carbon. besides that no changes. Thanks all!

Oh wow that sucks Dan didn't know the 4color went but that's cool of you to replace it even though it wasn't necessary. Can I ask what happened to it as far as did it get stung or was it hurtiin already when you got it? I'm glad the others are doin well including the ones you are contributing, Thanks again for those pieces and will look forward to your update. P. S give them bills hell pal hope all works out

Even if they were all healthy I'm sure you would have found your way back there :) How could you resist.
