What are you using for the background on that tank? I really like the way the light has played upon it in the first picture to create so many lines going in so many directions. Corals are growing out very nicely!

Thanks, for the background, I am not using anything for a background, its just the plain ol white wall, the light does bounce off it and give a nice flicker, kinda 3-d like.

You've got no coraline growing on your glass. Is that because of ZeoVit or are you scraping you glass clean all the time?

Nice tank!

i have noticed that, the amount of less purple coraline alg, has died or vanished from ,my system after going zeo. I know that some of the additvies, help to limit algae growth, so maybe coralline falls into this catagory. other than that, I try to keep the glass spotless.

thanks

so i picked up a TDS meter today, and i tested my tap water, and it came out to be 160-165. i am guessing its not the best or the worst.

so after starting up a few RODI threads, and then bailing on the idea, I got one put aside at red coral for me for thursday pick up.

It will be another week before i have to do a water change, so i guess well see.
