What "New Thing" are you going to try on your reef tank this year?

[revhtree]

The cool thing about this hobby is that there are a million ways to do the same thing! Or so it seems.

Since this is a hobby and something we do for fun getting to a place where it's "set it and forget it" is not always the most fun or most successful. Sometimes but not all the time!

That being said what "new thing" are you going to try this year? (approach, method, equipment, aquascape, species etc.)

Hoping to set up my new 120g Triton build.

I guess we will see if Triton is worth the hype!

Stop trying to make every number perfect. It does so much better when I just leave it alone.

I'm going to try and do something completely different. I'm going to try to stop making changes.

I was going to go dabbling sps. Instead I caught the zoa bug. In the couple of weeks I received a nice zoa frag in place of a dying sps that my lfs sold me. So now I'm a leather, shroom and zoa fan. That's what my tank is going to be.

I am so tired of dosing... want to try to figure out a calcium reactor; lots to read on the topic as I don't quite understand the setup yet.

I'm going to start two part dosing, I have very few corals and would like to add more.

 

[Schnizzle]

I'm going to move... ;Wideyed

I want to replace my apex with stand alone equipment. Been thinking about it lately and I don't want one piece of equipment controlling everything.

I wanted to do a remote sump to get the skimmer and Fuge out from under the stand so I could make the Fuge a bit bigger and make everything easier to clean but I don't think it's going to happen. My tank is in the basement so I can't go down below with a sump. It is against a wall with our steps/unfinished part of the basement so while I could fit a sump under the steps I'd rather have it all the way in the unfinished part which is ~8-10 feet behind the tank. Not sure my drains would work well traveling that far horizontally so for now I've given up that plan.

I think I've finally found a groove that my corals and I are happy with so I'm going to try to stay in that path

2 "new" things I would love to do to my tank are the Kessil 360x, and the new AI Nero 5. I"ve got a smaller 29 gallon tank, and I think both would benefit it greatly. Will those 2 things happen this year....time will tell!

I need to import and export more nutrients to get more color in my acros. I want to add an Algae Reactor to my system and then feed my tank more. I am also adding some Orphek UV bars to my MH/T5 fixture to add pop.

I want to hypnotize my wife into letting me buy more STUFF ;Smuggrin or at the very least convince her, it will some how improve my quality of life... ergo her getting more shoes

I just want to keep things steady and consistent!

 

[Flexin]

This year, the answer is 'NO', because it ain't broken At least that's what I keep telling myself

 

[mta_morrow]

I'm going to try and do something completely different. I'm going to try to stop making changes.

Well...….how's THAT going?

 

[mta_morrow]

I am adding significant SPS to a tank for the first time...……

Hopefully I wont be posting in the thread called...…"worst decisions I made for my tank in 2019" whenever it gets started
