getting a ton of frags and colonies accumulating in grow out and its time to get the calcium reactor going for better stability and reliability.
i picked up the sea bones III calcium reactor from avast and their effluent camber III as well a bit ago. it was time to get building. the effluent chamber was done already and was time to tackle the calcium reactor.
i'm a perfectionist and one of the very first things you have to deal with is this d a m n tacky stringy annoying solvent. o m g, never again. anyone else likely wouldn't have an issue but for someone who has to have things just right, i got frustrated super quick. thankfully i was headed over to justin's from avast already so brought over what i had left to do, and he had me taken care of in a jiffy and the man has the same attention to detail i do which put me at total ease.
going to find the perfect place for the system over the next couple days, order my media, and get it started - pretty excited!

regis jr is out of a 6-week quarantine and prophylactic treatment and enjoying the good life in one of the displays with his wrasse and anthias buddies now! he wasn't eating at all when i got him but after two weeks transitioned him off of sponge and clam/mussels to PE mysis (he seems to prefer bigger pieces than that found in hikari) and hikari spirulina brine and black worms.
beautiful fish and huge value add to my tank in terms of aesthetics and movement. i have a few more in quarantine including a juvenile sumatra gray chest that is just starting to peck at mysis free floating and a smaller yellow belly i got from another member on here that is eating very nicely and will likely go in the frag show-tank or be put into the 265 display downstairs.
