Hi dear Aquarium friends, my name is Gianfranco 49 years and I live in Basel Switzerland.
My current 5 year old mixed reef tank is 100 x 70 x 60 cm with a simple sump.
For years, I had a very strong Acropora coral growth until things got out of hand. I had underestimated the coral war and at the end the aquarium looked terrible. During my summer vacation, a hose loosened at the dosing pumps and the alkalinity dropped to 6 dKH for over a week. 5 corals had not recovered.
Ok enough negative report. It is going well again. For 3 months I try to keep everything stable to get the aquarium back with magnificent coral growth.
I hope I can share in the Reef2Reef Forum experiences and learn many new insights.
Forgive my English. It's also a mix of Girlfriend English, boring school lessons and Google Translator
