@popper not sure why I am just now seeing this but yes please, I'll be down in your area on Thursday if that works for your end. Pm'd.

I'd be interested when the next split becomes available.

I am also very much interested.

Wow, this coral looks unreal. Almost resembles a Passion flower.

@Blaise006 if you haven't already picked one up, I've got this for you.

Refugium in progress: sea lettuce has been put into a section of the sump along with a wave point blade HO LED aquarium light daylight/6500k currently being on 4 hours before the LED's at noon. BRS duel reactor put in with 1/3 GFO and 2/3 Carbon. Tank cleaners package arrived today.

Not sure if that was you or not, but I was just reading up on a thread a few days ago that was talking about how to sex a crab and somewhere along the lines of an all female crew not going after coral, which really is the main concern for anything new that enters the tank at this point in time...

I'll run with that advice and try using tweezers. Anyone on BAR in need of two emerald / Ruby Mithrax Crabs? (site has guarantee to remove bubble algae)

New plan is using a GFO and run it in a separate reactor. @Coral reefer the reason for the crabs is I have some bubble algae I want to get rid of on a particular coral.

Algae blooms appears to be at a slow down, the recent high Po4 rating probably accounted for that. It is now less visible on the glass and rocks. Shipment from reef cleaners coming in next week will include: 70 Dwarf Ceriths, 13 Nassarius, 25 Florida Ceriths, 18 Nerites, 22 Assorted Hermits, 2...

Update, the refractometer was calibrated properly which means salinity is definitely low. I added as much salt to a 5 gallon bucket that would dissolve as I could and hooked up my auto top off to it.

I should've specified, thanks everyone for the chime in's. 3.2 is measured in meq/l @Srt4eric I used the foundation pro multi test kit from Red Sea.

@Srt4eric you know I think the only thing that's where I want it to be right now is CA. Hoping that its all connected and just a salinity issue, I'll know more by tonight. Currently the coral and fish are all acting normal and MAYBE its just an issue of my refractometer needing to be...

Moving too quickly, thanks @max_nano ! can confirm KH 3.2* & re-test confirmed the results.

KH .3.2 CA 420ppm MG 1040ppm Issue with Mg likely related to tank's lower salinity. General rule: .0001 a day. Will adjust accordingly.

Just looked it up, what a kooky coral. I'd be interested in a frag if possible!

This would come in clutch, PM'd

That's the concern, just have to take things day by day.

Tank is now fully cycled, 10% weekly water changes began today approx 5-10 G's. In about a 5 day span the tank has been overrun by this brown Algae (I am assuming) the Desjardini Sailfin Tang loves the stuff but, aesthetically speaking I am not too stoked about it. Randal's goby makes an...

Since been relocated to new heights in the tank, Zoanthids and GSP are thriving! Thanks again for the frag @max_nano
