Foto time....

So I recently went for vacation to sunny Cancun and on my short absence had my tank fed lightly 2x a day. When I got back there was algae on the glass and a lot of detritous on the floor. I've spent a total of 8 hrs cleaning the tank sump and feeding this week. Weekly tests are on par but would like to focus on feeding the corals and fish more so my next vacation the tank can sustain less feedings. There seems to also be an imbalance in the tank as I am getting abit of cyano, part of this is due to adding some dry rock that must've leached abit. I will have to change out the rowaphos this weekend and start adding abit more nitrates and also do a 20g wc next week.

I purchased a new clam as the other ones didn't make it after dosing fluconezol and vibrant. I am still doing smaller vibrant doses Bi weekly to keep the few bubble algaes left at bay. On a side note the sps are growing like no tommorow, and I've added a green RFA to the collection and lastly a orange gold goni.

Sorry for the bad pic but gold and teal clam


Not a clear pic but green RFA



Just a random pic of the frag rack with a few new sps and documenting growth on the older stuff.


Lastly a yellow orange gold goni, I burrowed the pic from my buddy Dave as my phone camera sucks.

Time for an update, tank has been on auto pilot for awhile, picked up a bunch of AF stuff. Trying the flourine, energy, vitality, phyto, amino and build.

So far I have been dosing flourine as per recommended from one of my good friends that has seen a shot in his sps in Avery short time, for the cheap price that Jl sells their 10ml bottles I thought why not. I talked to Jeff from JL and aquired some 3 weeks back since the light dosage of only once a week I've noticed my loom put on almost 1/2". I am sold forsure. Other slower pieces has started to take off aswell.

A friend shutting down and another starting up I went to pick up some corals for my friend when I saw a piece I couldn't pass up the price was high but I am comfortable paying it as I know it's a show piece. This coral has made a full circle around my friends and now back into my tank. Gotta luv dem rainbows!!

Nothing more than a picture update...
Added a few more things to the tank, new hammer top right. Looks green in the pic but it's toxic yellow.





And a rainbow anemone at the top of the pic, sorry about the blue lights that's all I run in the sump.
