UV setup fed by manifold or small pump?
You'll like that UV.
I'll never setup a tank without........................just that feeling again!

 

[Flipside]

I have it setup now, Ben. I put it on it's own dedicated pump... just in case. Waiting on tank to look all shiney.

Looking good man, don't know how I missed your build thread! Going to have to sit down with a beer and work through all 25 pages of this, some good ideas to stea...err.. borrow

Hey fellow MARSHian!

I didn't see this post until now... Sorry about that!

Me and Robert (maconbits) were just talking about you last night. He's a good friend of mine. Apparently, I own a bunch of awesome corals from your tank now. I bought around 22-23 corals from him last night. Most were from your setup. LOL! I'll try to get some pics of them later...

By all means though, steal-away! There's nothing in my build that I haven't stole myself. LOL!

However, I've heard great things about your tank. I think that you know exactly what you're doing. I'd love to have most of your problems.

So, I owe you 2 thank you's! Thanks for checking out my thread (hopefully you drink good beer) and thanks for the corals and what you've done for the hobby locally. I wish more members were like you!

Peace buddy!

Okay... Here are most of the corals I got from a friend of mine. Plan is to grow these out and frag off a whatever he wants later on.

Quite a plunder, no?

Thanks man, nice of you to say. Heh, I do recognize a few of those frags! Robert was hunting for an orange setosa and mine had been static for a while so I could only do a small frag, glad to see it has grown enough to be re-fragged. Right afterwards mine took off and now is growing as fast as my caps. That hulk mille was originally from Jason (Ostentum) who got it from Copps so a good lineage on it too. Always good to see locally cultured corals start to circulate around. And definitely a fan of beer, I owe my "runners physique" to it. For a weird mix, two of my favorites are San Miguel and Grolsh. Definitely different beers, though lately I just seem to be sticking with shiner.

Yah gotta love new corals
What kind of sand are you using again ? I use Fiji Pink ATM . heard good things about the TE sand.
I was looking for Tropic Eden Reef Flakes, but as usual (OOS) . I was thinking of the mini's..not sure
Thanks .

 

[Flipside]

I use the special grade in the DT and TE reef flakes in the refugium. LOL! So far so good, I guess.

Awesome update photos!

What's in the news.............

 

[Flipside]

Nothing much, bro! Just trying to bring some colors back. I finally got a Hanna phosphate tester and checked it last night.

I think that's good.

Just feeding blackworms and enjoying everything. I did see a lower alkalinity issue last night, so I cranked up the calcium reactor a bit. That was my fault because I added all those corals and forgot to check and recalibrate. Doh!

Looking good Leo -- awesome new additions!

That's to low!
Dealing with SPS sticks you can be a little higher on the ladder.
