The first 2.5 months.....

Diatoms, experimenting with macro algae and a cat lid....


Fishy friends


Today's view under mostly white lights to showcase the uglies. Also note rock rearrangement.
Currently in the process of cleaning out the cyno and lowering phosphates with my newly set up reactor. Have also been doing a higher percentage during my weekly water change in effort to help nitrate levels.

Future Plans & Purchases:
• diy mesh lid!
• More dry rock to have more flexibility with aquascaping
• Protein skimmer
• Biopellets
• 2nd nano hydor?
• ATO diy in progress!
• hang on brackets for reactor
• replacement tubing for reactor

Stay tuned for future updates....

Pretty cool man!

Don't sweat the ugly phase. New tank cyano is driven by a lot more then n/p.
