UNS 30A (Dual) AIO Forever Evolving

Tank is doing well but water change was delayed for about 3 weeks due to various life things going on. The pictures are from the day after this last water change.

I am now going down to 50 percent water changes as I want to see if the pederson shrimp eggs that keep happening will survive. I am dosing now a small amount of all for reef and Aqua Forest Power Elixir since not a full water change.

Peaches is also doing well and back to her goofy self. On a good note also, I was informed that Maple's and Peaches' parents may be having another litter. We will know more in a few weeks and we will get pick of the litter free. But unsure if pregnant and not getting hopes up to much. These will be the last as they are an accidental litter.

Seems that the gonipora will be gone. Few spots left but from the saltwater mix up and the livestock constantly crawling on them, they will not make it.

Tank looks amazing! Just picked up one myself. How did you shorten/modify the ai blade mounts to fit on the tank?

Sorry for late response. I used a Dremel and cut each piece.

I will warn you now to replace the pump that it comes with. I haven't heard anything back but it will fail. Went through 2 or 3 and all caused issues.

Any of the new AI Prime download and use mobius. The AI app does not work well. If you go with the AI Axis pump, I recommend going with the 40 if it will fit and believe it does. You can not use the pump at least axis 20 past 90. At 95 the pump starts to shut on and off constantly. Safe to keep at 90.

The random flow rotator nozzle is noisy and seems to fail. Innovative marine makes one that works well. You will have to make a bit modification with fittings to sit right. Mainly cutting. Then finding a clip to put in back to sit flush. But super simple.

If you have lots of evaporation, don't waste time on buying their lid. I can link and show you a flush lid that looks nice. But will need air pump.

Sorry for late reply.

Well still waiting for the worst of the hurricane here in the space coast. Lost power about 5ish hours ago. I am usually prepared for this with battery bubbler and such. Well none of them work or can find. Luckily I don't have but 1 flaming prawn goby, 2 shrimp and a handful of snails and hermits, about 10 maybe in total. Will do some oxygenating in morning. Will get generator on after it passes.

Since both sets of folks live beach side my folks and in laws are staying with us.we all get along so no issue.

Well, here is the last picture of tank taken a few days ago.

Got luck here in jupiter. Few tornados went around but no damage here
Did lose power though.

On the battery. Says i got 13 hours left. I'll fire up the generator if it gets close.

Hope you get power back soon buddy

Just got power back

Ecofllow River 2

Its that one. Same price as i got it at actually. Powers the axis 40 for 17 hours at 30% speed. It charges back up in only a couple hours to which is nice.

I'm sure there are cheaper options but this thing is pretty nice.

Hope your power is back soon.
