Checked the rock for phos this morning.
When I saw a slight blue tinge on the Hanna 713 ,kinda figured I would see this ...
I hung some chemi pure Blue half batch / large bag to get the phos down . I also moved the mp40 to circulate the rock water.

0.25 ppm

Not really sure if the Tonga branch is causing the water clarity issues or gfo leaching . I am going to pull both to get to the bottom of it. .
My GMP love rock is good to go. .
I went over a few pieces n found 2 more crabs .
The mantis shrimp was given to my next door neighbor.

Another frag pic I never shared that is browned out now .
It didn't look like this when I got it . Not my pic but it's the frag I think I received .
It had a hint of blue in the base ..
It's not ready for a pic to share yet so this will have to do .

Do you put your corals through quarantine too?

Yes ..I do ..
It's way too risky nowadays. Dipping just doesn't cut it anymore . I keep , coral rx, peroxide .Levi, interceptor..n chemiclean etc on hand.
I use a nuvo 10 .. . I have a male bangaii n a target Mandarin ... In there. The Mandarin has been eating small pellet food n pods for a lil bit now.


Just moved my. OA Firegarden acro to the DT..
I am keeping n eye on the golden pygmy...

I asked for my white tailed bristletooth to be left in the bag .. Looks a lil odd this morning. It's eating well. I soak their foods. Was trying to get a pic of my small euphyllia garden n finally got a p8c of the elusive golden pygmy.
Tang is in the way of the golden hammer.

Well this is going to be the scape.
I did leave my prized acan in the QT since I don't totally trust the pygmy yet. It's a very busy body fish.

Most frags r mounted n I still have room for sticks.
I kept my blue n red hornets n the sand ftm
