Lets sum up the week!

So, some would say today was the first of the week, probably they would be right lol. I would like to pretend like today is the close of the week and tomorrow starts the first of the week. What's something that you did/happened in your tank that your most happy with?

I'll start! I've been battling cyano for a couple months now. Like, so bad that it comes off in sheets the size of standard tissues, think blowing your nose. So bad that everyday i had to blow my zoas off because so much cyano was growing on them they were closed up and angry. I tried flow, I tried dosing bacteria. I tried less nutrients I tried more nutrients. I tried getting live rock from more established tanks, I tried blowing out every crevice in every peice of rock. I kid you not I have more time into blowing off cyano than every other task in this tank(maintenance not the build, I took my sweet time with that) combined. That said, something switched about thursday/Friday and my tank is like 90-95% cyano free! I was super uber close to trying chemiclean but really wanted to be patient for once haha. Disregard the lens that isn't lined up with my camera :grinning-face-with-sweat: also what looks like cyano, is just regular algae but the lenses make it look red for some reason

I cleaned off about a third to a half of my front glass. That and cleaned up some salt creep and accidentally dislodged the calcium reactor drip into the sump and it ran for 12 hours onto the garage floor. So I had to add salt water and I feed the corals heavy and watched some thrive while others look like death is coming.

It’s getting close to ready to grow but I’m not able to keep up anymore.

Ups and downs bud. You got it! If it was easy everyone would do it!

I guess I am trying to get my tank prepped and ready to go for the Spring, doing some water changes and deep cleaning my rocks and the glass!
