Just did a water change.

Alk is now 7.3
Calc is high at 460, turned the doser off to slowly drop to 420 where I want it.


Still have dinos but as of now theyre not killing or at least I cant see effecting the corals so I am just going to keep basting and go from there. I wish I could get rid of them

Keep after those NO3 and PO4 levels – keep them from hovering around zero.

Potassium nitrate and phosphate are the usual dissolved nutrients that folks add.....feeding has decidedly less effect.

Brightwell and Seachem both sell N and P fertilizers, but you can also DIY them if you're into that. (They aren't expensive to begin with though....I'd use what's convenient and locally available.)

so everything has been going great still. I also picked up a couple pieces from TL Reefs, recommend to everyone! Prices are great for what you get. I got 3 colonies and some frags, very very happy with what I got.

One month growth which I thought was pretty good for a milli frag. Have a feeling it is about to take off

If you add any more tangs just be sure to use an acclimation box, I use it when adding any fish. In the last few months I added Chevron, Naso and a Fowleri tang, minimal aggression once released into the display tank which already had a Purple, Blond Naso and Desjardini tang

I was thinking about getting one to do this. How long did you leave it in the box?
