Waterbox AIO 64.5 - Build Thread

Documenting some photos of growth. Most of everything is growing pretty steadily. I have been battling GHA and finally got that under control using Fluconazole, carbon, and PhosGuard.

I left the PhosGuard in the tank for too long (forgot it was in there) and stripped the tank clean. Double 0's on N03 and P04... Which ultimately lead to a dino outbreak.

I have been dosing Microbacter7, NeoPhos and NeoNitro for a couple days, and that has seemed to help. I 3D printed a version of the UV wand, and bought a light on Amazon. I have been doing that for about a week and have noticed positive results. Can not indefinitely conclude wether or not it was the UV or the supplemental dosing but the combination has surely been working.

I just placed a pretty large order with Corals.com and worldwidecorals.com as well. I will add photos of the new additions next week!
Found your tank thread via the Hydros Automation you started.

Following along now.

Looks like it's been a while since your last update. How is the tank? What's new? What's different?
