P04 can creep our of hand pretty quick without us knowing, if you can double check p04 and n03

Not the worst idea; however...

Maybe I'll look into it on Thursday when I'm off

See some improvement today after whatever happened with the powerhead and/or getting my roller going correctly again.

I thought Elsa was just stopping by for dinner, didn't know she'd been upgraded and gotten bad news on the way over...

She barely made the cut for the upgrade...

Finally a little rain.

Yup.

Uh, September.

New sand monster and a couple other brats coming tomorrow. Tried to get a leopard but it "has a defect and likely won't ship well" - I actually have a Saturday off this week so I might check out a local shop I trust that I usually can't get to due to my schedule conflicting with their hours.

Still happy as can be

Same. Even when I upload through imgur

Fish finally arrived, everyone is floating in the sump to temp acclimate for a bit before I start comparing salinity & getting all that together. Maybe some photos later?

Reeftide live sale today, bought a sunburn blasto & a zoa of some variety. That's all so far... eyeballing a couple goni/alve though. We'll see. I'm TRYING to behave. Husband wants to redo the floors.... cuts into my coral budget...

While I'm browsing this sale, couple tank updates:

1. Aiptasia is all gone as far as I can see. Baby filefish really kicked bum with knocking it out, and thus far is still behaving.
2. Cyano is at about 50% what it was in the front left of the tank, about the same in the back left. Right side is still clear. Ran some numbers, nitrates are dropping fast with the roller and ATS - either need to start dosing to keep them in line with po4 OR switch back to clear fx pro instead of the reef version since pro does help drop po4. They're still detectable, but I'm missing the idea ratio.
3. Harley wiped out the 90 asterina I added like a week ago.... I think I'll use the chocolate chip to lure it out and catch it and take it to a local shop as suggested by either @fishguy242 @sp1187 or @najer (or maybe someone else?)
4. The 2 new fish are doing well, hawk is perching on all the things. Cocoworm is doing well also.

Used harlies a few times, I get cost minus 20% sales tax when I have traded them back at my lfs.

Yesterday's collection attached. The first two are the exacts. RT said the alveopora is basically white, they've had it for awhile, it won't shift color - growing and happy so not bleached, very interested to see it in person especially against all the ones I have now.

The last 3 are not the exacts but I didn't save photos. The blasto I got has more heads, as does the zoa, and the leopard shroom is bigger that I got. I also got a baby slitpore gorg that I didn't get a photo of and can't find a photo of on the site currently.
