The wifes tank update new pics 4/4/16

nice to see you back posting chris! corals are obviously growing tank looks great! you really are out of room!

 

Thanks OFK.

 

Update first post with current information.

Tested my params and running on lower end of a few things. I do not remember last time I checked.

ALK 7.84
Mag 1200
Cal 390

5gl WC brought ALK to 8.04 and Cal to 400
Adding 25ml Mag a day for next 3 days and will test again

I have seen increased growth with the PhycoPure I started using 2 months ago so guess I may need to keep a watch on things.

 

looking great Chris.

 

thanks scajeo.. Fighting the good fight

 

Current testing

doing 5gl wc every 3 days
dosing fuel 7ml twice a week
feeding phycopure 15ml everyday
rods coral blend and cube of mysis, or brine

CAL has been steady 435 since last posting
MAG around 1340 to 1400 range
ALK hanging low to mid 8 but implementing dosing. Really like to see this around 9 personally

anyways some night light shots.Only a couple

 

Very nice tank

 

lookin' good!

 

shifted some stuff around.
Also had some rasta and Red Hornets that had never grown. I did some reading and decided what the heck lets give them a dip(used coralRx as it was sitting there).

Red Hornets within a day were opening larger than I remember
Rastas seemed to shrink even more before coming around the next week

Did not really see anything come of but hey it seemed to have worked.

Couple pics

 

Changed Salt Brand Today Red Sea Coral Pro.
Tested new batch before doing change.. Good thing
Usual 5gl 2.5cups IO gives me 1.026
Red Sea Gave Me 1.028and ALK was 13.3
Added some ro/di and got it to 1.026
ALK 12.3 A bit higher than I am used to

Will run the normal tests tomorrow on tank and see where things are. ALK earlier today in tank was 9.0.
