Additional Aquarium Information

What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
Patience
I got the popbloom light that I ordered to replace my redsea led 50 and I am impressed with how well it seems to be made. It was easy to put together and seems to be easy to program so far. It comes with several preset programs you can chose from our you can manually set it.
 
Woo hoo!!!! How are the corals looking?
Looking great so far, thanks we’ll see in the morning. Kinda nervous, been on a losing streak lately.
 
I don't know if it still is but Creality Print was originally based on Cura, although supposedly inhouse developed. They used to use a Cura fork so I don't know how much is really 'inhouse' developed. Chinese companies tend to be a little loose with IP laws.
Like I said !

The sliding mount adjustment system is cool and easy to tailor the light's positioning to your tablets needs. I hope you'll be happy with it for quite a while!

I agree it made it super easy to fit it behind my light bar and I like that it came with two sizes of the part that attaches to tank a wide one and a more narrow one.

You've got this Kevin! I had those yellow beauties literally growing out of the water in .6 p04.

I can't wait to get them back in my tank!

Oh yeah I forgot about that. I think one's for a rimmed tank and one for rimless. Very cool
 
I like the reduced algae !
Its a nice feature. The only place I have issues with algea is on my glass and I have to clean it every couple of days or it's gets really bad and I can't see.
