00W's AIO Smorgasbord

[LadyMac]

They look healthy, not fully extended Bev, definitely not dying.

That’s good to hear. The top one (smallest) had me worried a little. The others are slowly extending.

I was worried I have cyano and I may but it also acts like dinos. I’ll have to get a microscope I guess. Blankets the rock and substrate, but it doesn’t have the smell like It did so maybe it’s a different type. Doesn’t go away too much with lights out.

Nitrates and phosphates bottomed out?

Good morning Paul! What’s the orange?

that's the tube anemone closed up. it goes through cycles from closed to fully extended. I think the Pitho agitated him.

I have AB+ I will do it when I get back home the lights will be on by then.

AB+ is my goto for checking flow. It is also good for showing you dead spots.

Is that where they usually run Bev or is it lower than normal?

Wow evenly cooked, baked?

microwaved between paper towels to absorb the oil. then quickly consumed before the kids find out!

My wife just sent me this to express her opinion of the new light:

I should add that my wife did probably 75% of the work putting up the new light. She crawled around in the stand pulling wires and adapters and helped hold the lights.

Good morning Joel, nice talking with you last night!

To me, this looks more like diatoms than cyano or dinos but it can be very hard to differentiate one from the other. Is it smothering anything in your tank?
