Photo update as per usual.

Tank is stable at 7-8 dkh 400-420 calcium.

Trace of no3 and po4.

Colors are vibrant but always can be better.

Lighting change to 4 ati coral plus 4 ati blue plus, I think the corals are liking it. I did 18 inches off the water for the first week then lower it to the original spot about 6 inches above water line. I am not a patient man.

Slowed down the water flow at night so the fishes can sleep, noticed more polyp extensions and since I started feeding oyster feast at night it is even more noticeable.

Just a great looking selection of corals! How do your wrasses and firefish fare with the bare bottom tank?

All I have are fairy wrasses so no need for sand. Firefish usually hides in the rocks to sleep.
