Thank you pal, now I am fixing a drink to enjoy the view. We should organize a virtual drinking while viewing our reefs.
Reefers night out!

Today’s pics, I still have some cyano, I will blow it again tomorrow and change the flow to try to prevent its formation again.

Lol...
yep, the sump light only rests 4 hours a day to help grow the chaeto, by the way I will have to harvest some before leaving. I still do no use NOPOX and got my NO3 and PO4 under control thanks in part to chaeto.

Today I installed the DOS after getting help to open it and re-align it internally (all my tools are in the US. Luckily nothing got damage and the unit calibrated and it is working like a charm.
I will be monitoring the kH and Ca in the coming days to ensure everything is ok and that I am dosing the correct quantities.

#honestyinreefing I noticed aiptasia and bristle worms like never before in my tank. I hope the banded shrimp and the yellow wrasse will help with the worms. I hate bristle worms, I don’t care if they are good CUC. For the aip the Aiptasia-X is helping but from experience I know is not a definitive solution and here is where the second part of the recovery starts....

I ordered from the LFS a CBB, blue tang, purple tang, yellow tang, magnificent fox face and a new melanarus. ;Woot

I hope the CBB will be the solution against aip and the melanarus will provide the additional teeth against the worms.

Thank you Rich, I asked the LFS to get CBB and melanarus first, so they will gent into the tank before the others then, they will get the tangs and the fox face and hold them until tangs and fox face are in the LFS to introduce them at once in the tank. I hope this plan will reduce the aggression among all the new members.
