Very generous @Finnaddict -I specifically look for your frags at the swap meets. I'd grab everything I could but I need to reset a few things due to the pellet dump last week before I bring in anything new.
Curious - I had attempted to test this by reconfiguring the time to the below time but it does not seem to trigger at that time. Goal is to test 2x a day at when lights about to go on and at 8 pm.
TIA
Update: So far pretty good. 6 fish went in and 6 fish came out. Lot of the corals looking ok but the sps not so happy of course.. Chemistry stil tripped up- nitrates tested today at 3.x, phosphates at above .9 (above meter reading. Dosing nitrate solution to keep it up and been dosing...
Siphoned what I could. blew a lot of it into the overflow where the rollermat would
Capture it as well. So a ton were captured -but I think def some left that I couldn’t get..
Water change is only to offset potential ammonia & nutrient spikes.,
No. I got as much as possible but there is still a lot in the sand I couldn’t get. By the time I realized what I had done -I had started other mitigation steps as it was already past 4-5 hrs - namely getting up on water changes. Now see if water changes (12-15 g) a day, a rollermat, and some...

Fortunately high tide is right up the street, so 12 today. 15 tomorrow-and prob 15 Sunday as I can make quick runs
Long story short-I switched the plugs for the avast feeder and tube. Didn’t notice until much later.. basically dumped a lot of pellets now sitting on sand floor?
Recommendations?
Bury it with new sand? Try to gravel it out?
Leave it be and the snails and shrimp will eventually deal with...
I have had three -
The tunze-hated it as it beeped constantly-and yes you can turn it off -and couldn’t access it if I was away from home-that is -no clue if it was too low.
Apex-liked it a lot initially. Was nice between sensors and the manual float cut off. Also liked that I could program...
I would not do this without the battery. If power goes out at night? Plus you can use the battery during the day if you use more than what panels are providing as an offset against the grid.
For us -unfortunately we are underpowered (won’t get into this but can’t add any new panels due to...
