Great tank build & I'm loving the phenomenal growth - congrats! I'm doing the same with the recirc CO2 scrubber but added a little insurance recently. The device will shut off the skimmer to prevent overflow -- otherwise, you'll end up sucking in essentially soda lime which will likely crash the tank! Assume you've implemented some preventive measures using some sorts of sensor?

Correct. The skimmer has an overflow value build in And automatically shuts off when the skimmer cup fills. I also programmed my Apex to shut off the skimmer when my pH gets to 8.5.

I do feed the corals 20 ml of AB+ daily and a cup of home grown phytoplankton with some Reef Roids thrown in.

Hard to get good fish shots - they don’t sit still!

I try not to visit my LFS too often - they have great stuff and I know that I only have so much willpower.
Me too but substitute moolah, for willpower.

I've got one shop that's luckily not close too me too just drop by. They have Way too nice of coral, and price accordingly.
