"Angel Reef" - Cade S3 1200

[krayzie]

i also started the triton MYTE subscription. i was doing monthly ICP anyway so this makes things alot more easier so i dont have to mix things myself

June i was lucky enough to score an aqua twist uv 57 from the same guy i bought the trident from.

only issue is that the endcap is broken but no water leakage

was able to plumb it on the wall of the cade using the jebao MDP 1200

so since i used my return pump for the UV i needed a return pump.

it was a toss up between a vectra or cor15 to replace the return pump, i decided to go the cor since i already had most of the neptune gear, i also put a flow meter on it as well

July. since getting all this great gear. i needed more organisation under the stand.

there is alot of room in the cade s3 1200 but its at a premium.

i thought about using this 3d printed stand for the trident but then i realised the cade already has a shelf :(

front side

i relocated the brain to the inside door and put the trident on the shelf lol

i need better cable management but its so hard to get in there

i also 3d printed some light shades as the spill was getting very annoing

september.

since using the MYTE subscription i decided to go a bit more deeper with the triton method and use a refugium..

2 month review is that my nitrates and phosphates have come down alot from
PO4 - 0.1
NO3 - 10

with the fuge

PO4 - 0.03
NO3 - 2

im worried about it bottoming it out so im reducing the lighting from 10 hours to 6

attached is one month growth of chaeto

Great update.!
How are you liking the Apex? I'm not sure if you got an MXM module but if you haven't it's worth getting so you can then connect all your AI and Ecotech gear to your Apex as well.
How's the UV going?

Yeah man it’s been a while for the update and honestly the nuisance algae got me down a little but soon as I got the Neptune gear I started to get back into it

With your MXM modules, how do you like it over Möbius? I would prefer having to check everything in one place.

Loving the apex with the automation with the powerboard.

I don’t think I could live without it. As you know Sydney gets hot and the apex is already turning off stuff when it gets hot. I’m looking for a chiller but they so expensive

I also have some leak detectors for safety.

Yeah this hobby can really test your patience, especially when things aren’t going the way you want it too.

The MXM module is great, my 2 radions and Nero’s are on the fusion app now so everything is in the one app. I still have the Möbius app but don’t really use it anymore, it’s only there for fallback entries in case the apex goes down.

I also don’t have a chiller and my tank can get up to 27 on a hot day but I’m not too worried about it tbh.

Did a 150L water change today. Wasn’t able to do one the past few weeks due to family commitments


Took a could have top down with no flow.i hav no idea what most of these acros are called so any IDs would be great
