Surprised no one has said anything bummer.
Anyhow. Testing this am to see if new doser is getting the job done with my settings. Before I dosed with a manual jug. 4 squirts Ca 6 alk. Maybe I should have metered a squirt lol then I would have been closer. Oh well stats below with adjustments.
Ca 350 oops. Went from 100 ml to 140ml I also seem to be having issues reading my test kit. It says clear blue. It was blue at 350 but I couldn't get it to go CLEAR blue no matter how much more I added to the vial. Seems like I had no problem reading it before. Going to take sample to LFS to see if Im having issues.
Alk 12.1 dosing 80ml a day shouting for 11 trying to make zoa's happier. Went to 90ml a day to slow the roll.
Dosing 10ml Mg a day. Need to check it. Now that bryopsys is under control I can lower it a bit.
Phosphate 0.02 with increased feeding.
Nitrate
Haven't tested yet but every time I do the Red Sea kit doesn't detect any. But sure there is a small amount. Come to think of it I haven't checked it sence and ding new fish.
ORP is 425 to 455

Oh there was plenty being said.... NICE! SWEET! AWESOME! and all that nonsense so I just deleted them all...... did not want you to get to BIG of a HEAD and become one of those 'Snobby Reefers' y'know.......................
Seriously though, looking pretty nice bud (notice all small case no caps with exclamation marks or anything)
Cheers, Todd

Some top down shots. Led reflection doesn't help but if I turn them off your cant see the corals duh!

Oh so need a good camera. Maybe that could be the next r2r giveaway
Me too! Heck, even a nice used one... I'd love to have the Cannon T3i lol
Love the fts too btw!

Now have fully functional led lights with my apex. Only problem I found is that the way it works you have to set the programming to 47% before a channel will come on. It seems that 50 to 100% is like 0 to 100% with the knob. But it still works. Sure if my lights had analog drivers I would get better dimming but this is a PCM work around and I'll take it. Also the apex has a cool graph feature for setting the light intensity curve.
Reference for 155e dimmer circuitry
This pic is for apex pin reference but my lights are not analog like in the picture.
This is for PIN number and color reference.

We will see. I was checking out the WWC website. They have some nice stuff. Not a super huge selection but nice. Looked like all the frags were small though. Be nice to get some bigger pieces. Some of the prices ouch but most were okay. At least they weren't all expensive. I think I will get a few things from them soon. Of course sure would be nice to win that giveaway.
Anyways have a great day everyone.

Also may need to get some nice analog drivers for my lights you have to have the setting close to 50% on these lights to get them to turn on with the PWM drivers installed. Has to be the circuitry of the dimmer to the PWM driver.

Want to see all your fish at one time. Just wait until your AFS starts making noise and they all come running. Lol it's like I rang the dinner bell.
