King's Reef - Upgrade from my 30 gal

[newmonium]

Really loving these green acans. Not sure id ever have picked them out at a storebut. Man they pop!

 

[newmonium]

My lepto with and without yellow filter. Ive been using red sea reef energy this past week and its really showing in my corals.

Royal Gramma lookin sharp tonight!

 

[newmonium]

Lets feature the blastos tonight! Love these guys!

Took shots of the tank before feeding today. Loving the new torch with the green mouths. Can't believe how big my trachy is getting too! What do you all think?

 

[newmonium]

This is probably one of my favorite pics I've taken of this tank. So much going on and so much personality. God really blessed me with this upgrade.

New pics from today! What do you guys think?

NEWS FLASH*****WARNING***
Reefing without testing/water changes can lead to ALK levels of 6.3 or less!

That being said I've got it dialed back in. Running the Red Sea blue bucket and have the parameters matched and stable. Found that setting alarms in my phone have really helped, albeit made my wife upset...

Love my trachy so I moved him to the front of the tank and he loves it. Also changed up the flow a bit as it was crushing the bottom front of my tank with very fast, steady water.

Blasto continues to grow very quickly. Am actively searching for affordable blasto welsi to accompany him as well as a non traditional frogspawn or octospawn. Enjoy!

Great pics.

Great pics.

Thanks. Note 9 pro mode does decent

Top downs and no flow shots before feeding.

Despite a phosphate issue, great looking coral today. Phosphates are falling!

 

[newmonium]

New updates. Trying to get my parameters way more in tune before grabbing some more sps. Water change and some top downs under blues with the yellow filter!

Sorry about your trachy. Is it a total loss?

There's still skin and a mouth but very little. I'll try and post a pic later. Thank you.

I'm betting it will recover.

 

[Katrina71]

Stinks to have to give up your foxface too.

 

[newmonium]

I'm betting it will recover.

You think it has a chance? Ya, the worst part is I got literally nothing for him. Not even $5 at the lfs. Was hoping to at least get a frag lol
