380/500 Gallon Build

My Foscam FI9826W came in today, I ordered another one right away because I liked it. Got a controllable feed set up on the apex statistics page of the website.

The only problem is it's at the shop right now until I bring it home tonight and set it up there, changing a few variables.

Got it rocking with two cameras, one on the tank itself, and one down in the basement so I can keep an eye on things at all times.

Hello friend, how nice it is becoming your project, the fish and the whole system that you mounted little by little is incredible.

I wanted to ask you a question on the dosing pump Jebao, which may have been operating until now they just think you just miss evidence as yet have no corals that need elements such as calcium and carbonates.

This will ask you why I want to buy a dosing pump and Jebao are an option, but I want to know opinions.

Thanks and keep up the great project.

Thanks,

The Jebao has been great so far. It is still being used, even though there is no coral yet. I have it putting in a small amount every day as the rock will still consume a bit of it to get coralline algae spreading.

Thank you friend.

The scrubber is beginning to show some progress the last few days.

And my lawnmower blenny has a huge stomach going on since hes been in the 500 now, after having him in the 29 for several years. The starry blenny does a little bit as well, but but nothing like this. They get along perfect, and sometimes will see them perched on a rock next to each other.

Thats a happy fatty blenny haha!

Cute fish, those fish have always caught my attention, but I'll ask a question. They are not eating corals? your going to have corals in your system?

Just depends on the idividual specimen like many other fish. Classified as reef safe with caution.
