Wow , stick-tackular

! You sure have the touch of making a nice set-up Brett. Good assortment of colors. Glad about the blenny, love those guys. Look forward to seeing this in person.

Thanks for the kind words everyone. We've been saying 'when those sticks grow' for a while now I gotta crack the whip on these guys!

Frustrating day today as I realized the rowaphos in my brs dual reactor won't tumble. Perhaps with the amount of ROX carbon in the other chamber there isn't enough flow...so I thought. After emptying them multiple times and trying different amount and even swapping the mj1200 for my eheim 1250 nothing worked. I'm using the rowa in a TLF now and the carbon in one of the chambers of the BRS. Much cursing especially when the display got littered with rowa once it truly WAS tumbling. It's all working now but I am still pretty ****ed!

So NOW the rowa should be working before it was a solid clump of it. My phosphates measured 0.6 ish yesterday so I'll see how this goes.

Have a good thanksgiving weekend!

Not sure if it's just part of the new rock and sand (much more of the rock is newly cycled than established) but this cleaning the glass daily is a royal pain. Sure hope the GFO does the trick.

No I don't recall it at all haha. You had a 90? That was older than a year ago my mind can't store info that old I guess. I clicked the link and recognized your photo handiwork right away tho!

And thanks Doug. I will have some trimming to do ONE day for sure.

I officially hate staring at these blue squares and trying to judge what my phosphate level is at. I think today it's around 0.1 down from 0.6 ish. Not sure that accurate or possible but WOW my colours, polyp extension and even growth (easily visible over the last 2 days) has noticeably improved. Getting the Rowa tumbling properly was ALL win.

Kien where did you buy the Hanna phosphate checker?
