Fish building/man cave build!

It’s gettin real now.

I almost wish I hadn't put the light on my tank.

The Dinos are 10 times worse than I thought. I turned it down to AB+ 20% to allow things to acclimate, but, that few minutes at 80% was enough to really make me disgusted.

I am hoping that the proper spectrum of light, an acclimation period, microbacter 7 and UV will help.

I have only had Dinos once and they were gone in a few days with UV.

How disheartening. Too much money in it now to give up though.

First dose of microbacter 7 in. Wait 4 hours and turn on UV and skimmer again.

Also added ceramic spheres as suggested in another thread here. Apparently the microbacter will cause the good bacteria to populate it faster than the dinos and that helps outcompete so it dies off. Not so certain it'll help but it certainly can't hurt.

Oh. I centered the dang metal fish finally. lol

Good luck with the dinos. They can be a bear.

Centered the fish? How are we supposed to believe you without any pictures?
