Thanks. I wish I could upload videos here feeding yesterday was funny between the wrasse doing legitimate 360 degree body rolls in excitement to try and impress me and the cleaner shrimp literally swimming up to half the tank. They’re all happy.hey that's a really clean scape. for sure it's accessible, most people don't think to guide a reef that way but in your case that's such a clean install you can just lift out a rock as needed and make it comply outside the reef then set it back
that euphyllia is healthy and very large for such a new tank, it's happy for sure. the animals are happy that's a nice setup
I will say I am taking more of the physical approach and I will not mess with things that will set the chemistry off.
The most dosing I’m doing right now is ionic calcium and even that my calcium should be set right around 420ppm and then I just need to supplement whatever is lost with my ATO. I’m just about there.
I will say I’ve noticed the blue tuxedo urchin is an algae monster he cleaned the top piece of dry rock there used to be a bunch of bubble algae and stuff on it before. What CUC members I do have seem to ignore the dry rock in front. Maybe expanding the CUC a bit could help too? What CUC I have is 1 large snail , cleaner shrimp and a tuxedo urchin. I heard emerald crabs help with algae control I don’t see 1-2 of those causing trouble.
