    First tank: 20L SW -> 20L+10 SW -> 40B SW, 10 FW

    Lot has happened: turned 10G sump into a blackwater tank (with mainly tropical houseplants and Pygmy Corys) and first replaced it with a hacky one made from some cheap plastic tubs, had a leak scare while I was on a work trip from air buildup in my overflow, stripped it down to a sump-less setup...

    The sump can take overflow volume, and my powerstrip will give my pumps/heat around 8 hours back up power. Ty for the heads up. Agreed about shrooms I quite like them, I have some blueish discosomas and one brownish ricordea in the top and bottom left but may be on the lookout for more.

    Thanks! Yeah I'm not expecting spikes now. It's still in mainly because the clowns sleep wedged up against the glass under it and seem to treat it like their host, so I haven't wanted to remove it until giving them a better alternative. I've been reading some have had success ammonia dosing...

    First tank: 20L SW -> 20L+10 SW -> 40B SW, 10 FW

    Around 2 Mo Update: added some cheap soft corals. I like the natural looking browns for some reason. Also an algae blenny from HTA, who is chowing down on all the ulva (lactuca and intestinalis) which is all over and out competed the GHA and bryopsis. Picture is around 3 days since an ulva trim...

    First tank: 20L SW -> 20L+10 SW -> 40B SW, 10 FW

    First 3 weeks update: After adding macroalgae (small value pack from The Macro Lady): This was before uglies kicked in [mainly cyano now in middle of tank]. Codium has since begun sprouting new branches, slowly. Rest isn't growing much but not dying either. Since have added a MiniQ skimmer and...

    Actually reading that adding more nitrogen may be exacerbating and I could have a high N/P ratio… P now also coming in around 0 when it was 0.1 or so prior. Hmm. (Source)

    Update: Looming dino issue? Tank finished cycling No2->No3, added an ATO and started using RO/DI top off, put in probably too much macroalgae, mainly codium and a range of graciliaria two days ago hoping to get some life this weekend. Most seemed pretty healthy apart from some white tips at...
