PAR readings. The PAR is pretty evenly distributed. My clam must be really happy. Looking at this photo I can tell because today I have an inch of new white growth since July. Pretty good for 6 months.

Currently no sticks like I planned. I tried a Hydnophora and later Red Montipora. Both quickly met their demise.

I currently have...
1 Derasa clam 7” now
1 Maxima (just added) 2.5” (hopeful)
2 Black Ice clowns
1 Maxi Mini
1 Spotted Manderine
8 Rock Flowers
3 Ricordea
1 GSP patch
1 patch neon orange and green clove polyps
1 7 headed Duncan that’s not doing so hot.
1 Pink Bubble Tip Anemone
1 Rainbow Bubble Tip looking good after a day of adjusting.

lost 1 Watchman and 1 Fire Shrimp. I think the clowns killed my Watchman, but not sure why the Fire Shrimp died.

Maxima that brought disease to my other clams. Regret this purchase

Just some photos. I would be so much more happy if I had never purchased that maxima. Still trucking along though. I’ve got consistency with parameters, so lets hope.

Fun Facts:
Tank is consuming about 2.5 grams carbonate ion and 2.75 grams calcium ion per day, so whatever this balances out to, is an approximation that’s pretty closely matching. This is broken down from 60ml per day of 1molar solutions of sodium carbonate(106gm/L) Carbonate ion MW is 46 and 60ml a day of CaCl(110gr/L) Ca ion is MW 40.

Clam has grown 2” of new shell and god knows how much weight in 10 months. The girth is surprising.

Outstanding build. That’s serious dedication to leveling the floor. That gave me anxiety to read. I can’t wait to see how those sticks take off. What kind of par levels are you getting

Tank is in bad shape. I manage a business and the job has ripped my soul from my body. 90hr workweeks and staffing have emotionally tormented me. STN took out most of my SPS. Bacterial STN, and I couldn’t keep up with the care. I’m trying to recover emotionally in baby steps. I’m starting slowly by building my micro algae culture vessels and then I have to do a major clean up of the display. I hope to start dosing micro also. I‘ll post the damage only when I have an after shot and a recovery. Thanks for checking my thread. Your SPS are nice pieces to ponder.

Keep your head up, everyone on this forum that keeps SPS has killed SPS regardless what they say! 90 hours a week is tough, and definitely understandable, use this as a learning point and your tank will come back together better than it was!
