Here are the before and afters of my "test" frags. Photos on the left are fresh mounted in the tank after a coral dip and the right is 24 hours later. The leathers were not super happy after the dip but look good today. Got a Duncan, a Toadstool and either a sinularia or nepthea frag (I dont know which it was labled assorted soft coral frags)

How do you grow your own phyto?

I believe reef plantation sells some of the fertilizer but you will have to read some tutorials as I don’t do it myself, you have to keep the container sterile tho and it needs an air pump but once you have that you can grow your own pods with the phyto

Made a DIY controller board for under the stand to house the Heater, Return Pump, ATO, and MP10 controllers. This is my first attempt to keep wire management under control.

Your tank looks so clean compared to my old 29 gallon. Also have the Intank upgrade but use the Steve's LEDs upgrade.

Finally got around to hooking up the Tunze Osmolator ATO, got the AI Prime intalled, and put the KrakenReef Lid on. The uglies are starting to subside.

Is there an option to change feeding port side?

No lol, for some reason with running the flow diverter with the intank media basket (haven't confirmed I even have it in there right yet) my water level is running higher than I want. High enough that the water was all the way up to the bottom of the kraken reef lid and some of the mesh was touching the water. So short term solution I flipped it over to raise the mesh up out of the water until I figure out why the water is so high.

What setting is the pump at?

Running the Mighty Jet (538gph) at the lowest setting, but If i take out the media basket flow diverter the water level goes back to normal. Thats why I think that thats the issue. According to Innovative Marines website the mightyjet at the lowest setting 1.1 is only 187gph which I believe is lower than the stock biocube return pump so I dont think its because the pump is pushing more water than the overflow can handle.
