For sure buddy. I will be by next weekend and maybe I'll drag Warren out with me too.

Sounds good, let me know as I typically work on the weekends. Oh I brought the quiet mounts for the Gyre. Jess has yours.

Some update.

I started a frag tank which is now plumbed into the sump of the DT.

I'm looking to move all the corals over to the FT as I'd like to requascape, the fijicrete from Eli seems to be falling apart and I rather fix it asap.

HOLY! you will need to get back to the basics, keep your alk and cal stable and n and p at close to 0. If you can do that than everything should fall in its place. good luck

I talk to Jess at least a few times a week... and cant figure out what is up with a few of my acros, i dont know what else could be causing the issues at the moment... I think next step is to cross my water samples with someone else test kits.

Here is the history of the tank which ****ed off some of my sps (already lost a few)

Had FW so moved all the sps to a QT tank which went OK, except i had a alk spike from 7-12 - fel asleep and forgot the Alk pump on..

SPS started to look worse by the day so decided to cut the QT period short and move them back to the DT. Most sps did OK and recovered or still recovering except for a handful which either died or still expelling zooanthele, I'm guessing this is due to the very low nutrients which I run in the tank... I still cant get any nitrates or phosphates in the tank no matter how much I feed
