Exciting updates for sure! I don't have any algae yet either and an eager to get some cleaup crew type critters. Do you just throw in a tiny bit of fish food and they find it? Or do you try to target fed a bit?
I am also programming my lights and ramping up the intensity. I have a Kessil though, so different app, but yeah, seems like most of these reefer gadget apps have a lot of potential but the actual UX is a little lacking. Why are the blue and teal lines zigzag?
I too am in the same stage where my tank is supposedly cycled based on test kits but 0 algae. I am bumping up against my own knowledge from previously having a tank 10 years ago where live rock was the thing. So now I started with dry rock and FritzZyme 9. I had my lights off during that time and just turned them on. So perhaps we are skipping some of the "ugly stage" because of these newer practices? I'm sure the algae will come but hopefully not as strongly as previously happened to all reefers?
I love your stocking ideas. Can't give much advice in this area, except keep the ideas and just see how things go over time and add more inverts and fish when the tank is stable and see how it goes. I vote rock anemones and ricordeas. Do you plan to have a bigger tank in the future for if something like the carpet nem got too big? Or you could just send it to me jk
