@CaliDanhReef great to see another Reefer 250 I’ve got one too. I’m going to follow this one. I think you can upgrade both lights to the Mobius app.

Thanks for the input, so far I like Reeflink on g3 xr30,

Bought a baby hippo blue tang and baby biota yellow tang. Both healthy and eating well, blue tang scratches but eats nicely. Will be feeding it garlic soak foods. Both lowering down algae faster than they grow.

@CaliDanhReef I would limit the use of garlic soaking and in my experience is not helpful directly on the food. It is a terrestrial food and could be a detriment to their liver as terrestrial foods can be. Instead I put a couple drops directly into the tank water. They can definitely smell this and is known to stimulate their appetite. Just a couple minutes before feeding and it can make a big difference. Garlic has a very strong taste and putting it directly on their food over powers the taste of the food to where the fish can’t taste anything but the garlic. Try this with a bite of your own food. Of course this is just my experience and you might find different results.
