Jasper's 40 gallon

[clsbgirl]

Lovely tank, exactly how I want mine to end up. Question do you dose or feed your coral? I have mostly softies & LPS in a 55gal, and a Jebao WP25, I'm thinking the flow is way strong for my softies as well. Again great looking tank.

Thanks!
I spot feed with reef roids every other day, and frozen food alternately.

I've read that softies and LPS doesn't like high flow, that's why my powerhead is pointing a littl towards the front, not directly to the corals.

Keep the photos coming!

I definitely add a couple more. :)

Oh BTW, I did a monthly water testing (API) last night and these are my numbers. Is there anything I need to doze or change? Right now I only use Red Sea NOPOX 1ml/daily to compensate for feeding.

Salinity - 1.025
Po4 - 0.06 (Hana)
No3 - 0
Nitrite - 0
Ammonia - 0
Ph - 8.4
Alk - 9
Calcium - 440
Mag - (no test kit yet, I was told not critical for LPS/softies?)

How you liking the nopox system? Easy to use?

About 6-8 weeks. I'm dosing manually every night. The first couple days, my PO4 reduced by half and my nitrates from 40 to 0. Then after that, I cut my dosing from 2ml to 1ml, and since then my po4/no3 stayed .06 and 0.

I'm not really good in monitoring subtle change, but seeing growth on most of the corals. Nothing died except for the blue stag acropora I had. LOL It's my mistake, I should have know better that my tank is not mature enough for SPS.

Finally got a chance to take a pic of my new tank (did the upgrade two weeks ago)

He/she have enough room to swim now :)
