Cheryl's Reefing Ideations.

It has been 2.5 yrs since I have had a clam. The clam is stressing me out. Hopefully the clam has found it's happy spot.

This clam moves so much there is no way I can put it up yet. Turned up the whites, to my surprise clam and SPS responded well.

Started All For Reef about 2 weeks ago. It definitely takes some time to dial in. I am still using 2 part to make small adjustments. So far I really like what I am seeing.
Alk 8.3
Ca 380
SG 1.025

The clam is almost 3 weeks in. I feed this tank a lot, plus Acropower imo this has had a positive effect. Knock on wood.

Still trying to get a dosing regime correct. SPS could be growing faster. Zoanthids growing quickly.

So the clam is almost 2 months in my tank. The clam does move around more than I expected, appears healthy and growing under Viparspectra 78% in the sandbed.
My zoanthids growing and spreading.
In 2 months the tank will be 1 yr old. Chem still posing the biggest issue.

Still a work in progress. Had a toxic bloom, waited too long to see if it would turn around by it's self, slow going.
Zoanthids and clam growing well. Spa struggling.
Tank is a year old, many ups and downs, but I see a good second year in the tank's future.
Stay safe Reefers.
