It was the only thing i changed and a week later BAM. But i have talked to a few people and i totally agree, phosban is key in a system and same with carbon for me. things are starting to turn around. hopefully it stays that way

That is a digitata and its like a redish orange, very nice frag that has grown extremely quickly. It actually came from one of the canreef celeb's (fishytime).

kien oh man tempting but i have to hold off till the upgrade. Its going to be a strickly sps only tank and all of the zoa's will either be sold off. Hopefully this will be happening late spring, all depends on money. As for now, i am max'd out and have no more room.

do you dose anything to keep your alk or ph up
Only thing i dose is tailored aquatic's products (calcium and magnesium every second day, potassium and phosphate destroyer once a week)

I am also running KZ carbon in a phosban reactor and i have rowa phos hanging in a bag

And i only change my water once a month

I like to keep my systems as simple as possiable, lol its been working so far but i hate the waiting game with sps

Well its been a year, everything is really starting to take off. Probably the best thing i could have done was not touch anything to much. Only thing i have to say is I will be fragging this birdsnest before it gets to out of hand. Its starting to get really close to some of my other corals
