Thanks guys. Well it has been about a week and the only loss from my CO2 mishap was a wild sps frag I got from the LFS.

Thanks everyone :)

Sahin, I don't test for NO3 and PO4 so I'm not sure what my levels are. Here is a basic rundown of what I do, 20% water change every two weeks, I use Seachem ReefSalt, I run 2x250W radium 20k and 2x96W VHO super actinic. VHO are on 12hrs and MH run from 11am-4pm. I run a CalRx and check my ALK twice a week and adjust accordingly with Seachem reef builder. I run GFO and carbon 24/7. I feed about 1/8tsp of pellet three times a day via an automatic feeder and frozen daily (1 cube of mysis and 1 cube of spirulina soaked brine shrimp). I think my colors come from my light combo. Out of all the tanks I have seen, the colors that appeal to me always came from tanks with 20k MH with VHO supplementation.

Beautiful tank! I also have a 36 x 36 x 30 cube, and I am thinking about re-aquascaping it, you've given me some great inspiration! Keep up the good work!
