I don't think so.
Tanks look great.
Thanks!Very nice
Are your running any Kalk?The build start is delayed for a couple of week due to an appeal. Not super fun but I guess these things are common
Aquarium wise not much has happened. We're having a bit low pH in one of the coral systems, due to the calcium reactor. We've started dosing Core7 to be able to turn the reactor down a bit and so far the pH has gone up on average 0,1. The corals are doing fine though (that's why we have had to turn the reactor up and up..). The absolutely easiest way would be to pull the plug and connect our two coral systems together, since the other one has really high pH(the pipes is already there, just need to remove two pipes which are not glued).
But then we would leave the idea of having separate systems to ensure not all of the corals would be killed if something happened to the water.. Have to think about that for some time before I change anything
If you mean calcium hydroxide/kalkwasser, we do not use that now. I rather use Core7 to lower the risk of imbalance. But on the other hand, some extra Ca often is needed when running our calcium reactors so adding CaOH could be a good idea.Are your running any Kalk?
The short anwer was above. Here's the long oneAre your running any Kalk?
I've seen the standard you set for your coffee. That may cost more than the acrylic windows!!! ;WideyedOr a new coffee machine?
That's my morning coffee at home. The rest of the day I'm stuck with fox poison(direct translation from Swedish ), i.e. regular filter coffee. We really need a proper coffee machine at the Aquarium too!!I've seen the standard you set for your coffee. That may cost more than the acrylic windows!!! ;Wideyed
That’s awesome! Keep us updated!Forgot to mention, we do have some fun stuff going on at the moment.
Two students wanted to do an experiment for school. After reading about DLI(daily light integral I think ) we talked them into doing a short growth experiment with two different light settings. One with 12 hour of light in a row, then 12 hours off. The other with 3 hours on, 3 hours off all day. So both sides will get 12 hours of the same light intensity, but in different periods.
Test corals were measured today. Species will be Seriatopora hystrix and Montipora sp. Those are the ones doing the best without glue. No glue makes it easier to measure the weight.
I think the experiment will last for two weeks. I'm just watching from the side this time
That is awesome. Some people feel that you can grow zoanthids much faster using a 6 hour on, 6 hour off lighting cycle. I'm curious how much truth there is to it.Forgot to mention, we do have some fun stuff going on at the moment.

Yes, I've read a couple of posts about that. But I haven't had time to do much research myself yet. And not my colleague either I think, the colleague who's the supervisor for the students. So this is mostly for fun and for them to have something to write a report on. It's not university students this timeThat is awesome.

That is really cool!Coral spawning and settling of Seriatopora caliendrium
Here are some baby colonies
Seriatopora species are hermaphrodits with internal fertilization, but they can also self-fertilize. So probably this is "clones" from self-fertilization.
What I can see they look the same as the large colonies we have in that same tank.
