I like your setup. My 40 is almost ready for some animals too. Just no lights yet until the Black Friday deals start.

Diatoms are now under control. Thanks for 2 Trochs, 2 Astrea and 2 Blue Legged Hermits.

Thanks, it saved me this week. I over dosed ALK to 20DKH and had to do two large water changes. No thing better that running out and getting water that matches my parameters and no need to wait for my RODI system to make water, mix and wait 24 hours.
looking good :)
I run NSW too ;) nsw yields a clearer tank IMO

Nice! So you collect your own?
my lfs collects it and runs it through uv and what not so it’s perfectly safe with no pets

So, changes;-) After looking at the video that I posted earlier (Post#62), I decided to remove the 2 Koralias and will replace with 2 MP10. One is there. Will add one more later. Love the MP10!

Saw a little tip on my Bubblegum Digitata, so decided to take a pic. I see growth at two weeks!
