120 peninsula build

Yeah, really we are worried about keeping our fish alive, and how to post good pictures of them, and other people don't have food or water.
 
Just finished reading the whole thread. Sweet build! One of my favorites so far. Keep up the good work.

Just need to be thankful for what we have.

Went to the LFS on Saturday. Got some Chaeto, Feather Caulerpa, and some Dragon's Breath macro algae. Got some AF phosphate minus, SeaChem Carbon, and Zeolites. Media reactor is up and running! Had them test my water. Ammonia is kicking at 1.25 I think they said. Nitrites, and Nitrates are undetectable, PH spot on. I'm thinking that the addition of the sand for the refugium is the source of ammonia. Ordered up some AF BioS, NP Pro, PRO BioS, Carbon, Zeolites to get the cycle going right. Diatoms are in full bloom in the Fuge, spotty in the DT. I suspect that by the end of the work day today the DT will have a good diatom bloom going also. Things are progressing as expected.
 
Diatoms seem to be fading as hoped. Got some AF supplies arriving Saturday, and my new skimmer should be here tomorrow. I think I found some new growth on the Feather Caulerpa and the Cheato is definitely growing. Going to the lfs on Saturday to have my water checked again, and hopefully/maybe get some snails in this thang.
 
Outstanding dude! Of course, I really dig the minimalist look. The rock on the left is bad butt! Well done.
