Another Fusion tip Ray, If you wanted to clean up the Home screen view to only show the things you're using you can click on the Lock Icon on the top right of the page and drag the un-used tiles up to hidden area that appears once you click the Lock.

thanks!
I just kinda figured that out yesterday when I added the powerbar and pm1 and had to drag stuff to screen wondering where the heck it was lol. Hadnt really thought about moving any open ones back to that space tho. Now need to play around some more and get the custom screen after I get orp probe running and all plugs moved. Any tips on apex most appreciated so much stuff easy to miss something and not get most out of it.

Evening all, Got news on the Aquatic life 48 t5 lights today. Seller never responded to PayPal info request so refunded the 90 bucks. Guess deal was to good to be true after all. At least got the cash back now the search will continue @thejuice24 You get any response yet John?

#honestyinreefing haven’t tested in cpl weeks and the big three fell quite a bit. I was going by look if my Kenya Xenia and mushrooms which look good but will prolly look better as I bring Ca Mg and DKH back to happier range over next two days. The corraline growth which slowed (duh big three are down ) is ducking up quite a bit. Time to get religion again and resume testing every few days to find out consumption.
Had to repair car today so kinda beat and only set up orp probe didn’t get any more plugs programmed I feel the shame and go to the box ;) Orp orobe they say can take a week to break in so will see how that goes. Should be another tool to see how tank is feeling.
I’m thinking adding corals is back in play next few weeks time to have something else sucking up ca and nutrients along with the coralline. Enough blah blah pics tomorrow

Ha that confused me the first time too. Apex is pretty straight forward but so many little secrets.
Hope you have the wool lines Speedo’s ready for the weekend. I’m ready!

Hey guys and gals what a day! Took a road trip with Richthereefer and Crabby48 to visit Scurvys & Fudsey’s and see their set ups. Was a lot of travel but well worth it to see these guys and have. Chance to talk reef hang out and see their setups in person. It doesn’t matter how many pics you send in person serine it all at once is a whole different ball game and blew me away. Some eye candy below that don’t do their tanks true justice but I’m working on my photo skills

Had a great time with you Ray. Best was being greeted by you in your reefing clothes or lack of.

Sorry I didn’t get to see your tank this trip. Time went so fast.
I ended up leaving later them expected, Rich started educating me with kalk. You can read to educate yourself but the real in person answers all the mystery questions one might have.

Catching up from the road trip today. So far have taken apart and cleaned three pumps reactors are soaking to get rid of some scum on the fuge light side (need a curtain to control light bleed) . Next is running wires to 2nd eb8 tho the return pump wire doesn’t reach! Grrrrr. Running out of juice but will see what I can finish before crashing. Think WC will be waiting a day or two more tho.
