Here you go coral spam ! Also I thought I placed my hammer order fast enough but now gotta wait untill next week ! I was gonna do a water change but everything looks so happy

Those gonis. I have no idea how to help stubborn goni I bought one from joe knows reefs and it never did well. I am sure it's going to be gone, totatly dead by the end of next week. issues is, it was on the decline when he sold it as well. I did not see how much died in the photo before I bought it.

I haven’t seen tissue loss yet , and the base is glcovered in baby aiptasias I might have to invest in peppermint shrimp. Maybe that’s why the goni is retracted ? Idk I’m keeping it in that spot for a while funny thing when lights are ramping up I see it extended a bit more then full intensity but my sand bed is like 50-80 par rock work is 90-110

Smother all the base with super glue, don't allow it on the goni flesh. The aiptasia wont be able to escape.

Gotta pick up some more super glue . I’ll try that tomorrow and see how he is after I get rid of the problem.

Next quest I’m on which phosphate Hanna checker is the one for me.

Super excited to get it over the tank tomorrow. Had a little test run of it on 100% blues and boy did those colors POP.

Been trying to figure out how to use this thing for the past hour or so. Can’t even figure out how to power on the remote, let alone work the light.

Anyway, I’ll get it figured out eventually. Guess all of these troubles are to be expected with new technology.

They gave you a controller? That is awesome. I don't think my package includes one. So, I may have to buy that.

Yes. I can’t figure out to get turn the dang thing on though, so I can set it to SPS/LPS. It’s been connected to power all night, but it doesn’t have a power button. ;Meh ;Blackeye

 

[Goaway]

Their instruction video no helping you?

I hate lights with no instructions lol

 

[Goaway]

I should have asked njtaxman is he got a controller. It looks painful without one.

 

[Goaway]

Psst, james... are you still alive?

 

[James_O]

The instructions literally just tell me to “power on the controller”. ;Facepalm ;Facepalm

I’ll get you a picture of it on and over the tank, but the tank is messy, just warning ya.

Not that I’ve seen for the controller.
