Did another couple of videos the other day, all be it in the day time but it gives you an idea. Anemone is currently in the sump as its split.




The light above my GSP is currently awaiting a replacement control board as the blues aren't coming on properly. This issue ha come about ever since I increased the % from 85-90% and it caused heat issues. Common in Razor 420rs. Maybe one day I will upgrade them to something else or change them from 160w 16k pads to 180w 15k pads. Ironically its the 180w one thats gone!

Update because I know @revhtree likes it when we update our threads ;)

Refugium currently


November 1st 2021



Changed the control board on the Maxspect 420R but it didnt fix the issue. rather than buying new light boards I am saving for new lights. Current plan is x2 Orphek OR3 150 Blue and rotate 2 of the Maxspects and then sell two of them. Once they are sold its whether to replace the maxspects with 1 Orphek OR3 Reef or save for 2 Radion G5's. Most economical is just one more Orphek because the tank is only full of softies so doesnt need all the PAR.

Feel free to comment below with your thoughts x

crazy how large some of those corals are
Yup the big finger leather coral does have to get cut back every so often. The sarcophyton is the second biggest but I havent/daren't trim any of that yet. The third biggest is the blue ridge coral on the bridge. Chopped a couple of pieces off but not been very successful with the frags. Sure I will get better over time.

Tank is 36" wide so it's only when your over it that you get to see the full size :)
