Just over a month into the 4 month cycle. Once I hit this mark I'll be increasing the photoperiod to its maximum of 8 hours with an hour either side of ramp up/down.
My parameters have been exactly where I want them for the past few weeks so hopefully things are headed in the right direction!
Temp - 25°c
Salinity - 35ppt
pH - 8.2
Ammonia - 0
Nitrite - 0
Nitrate - 3
Phosphate - 0.02
I'm not checking calcium, magnesium or alk yet as I won't be stocking corals until I'm up to 7 hours total photoperiod (3 month mark).
Tomorrow I'm picking up 1 Trochus and 1 Nassarius snail. They'll likely be the only clean up crew for a good while as the tank is too new to sustain anything more!
Few pics below of the tests and the clown, stay safe and have a great week!
