So few setbacks, but still trucking, all that being said I have seen some growth on my coral and plenty of things are doing well.

My latest mistake was leaving my dosing pump on on accident and dumping a whole bunch of two part into my system. By the time I caught it my alk had jumped from about 8.3 to 13 or so, luckily I had a lot of water mixed up and was able to do probably about a 50%ish water change which brought it...

Next difficulty has been my continuing battle with cyano, I have done two seperate blackouts, one 2 day and one 3 day about a week apart, but it keeps coming back. Used to only on the sand but recently it has gone on to the rocks a bit and getting close to some coral. My po4 is about 0.1 (up...

Around two months ago I found some MENBs in my display tank, I had found them in my frag tank a while ago, and then got rid of the montis in there and set up a clean tank. Was bummed to see them in the display too but just tore off the bandaid right away and threw out all my montis that night...

I can make frags of this in San Leandro too, I've got one or two ready to go

I feel like it’s also a timing and quantity thing. If your prophylactically treating a few fish at a time TTM is probably best, but let’s say you out a fish in your established tank and then have ich, if you’re gonna follow a fallow period and have to wait anyway, putting things in copper for a...

sounds good just shoot me a pm

I have some of these in San Leandro too if anybody wants

Too bad, but definitely good to know. I luckily have some cipro lying around I can put to use if anything starts to get really bad

Thanks both of you for the tips, luckily I had plenty of salt so I just did a big water change with that and got the alk back to 9.3. Maybe tomorrow change out the GFO if it hasn’t dropped a bit more. So far things looked alright so hopefully crisis averted

I will probably do a mix of both of these, my salt mix is pretty low at 8 dkh so it should be good to go.

Doser/user malfunction had the dosing pump running for an unknown amount of time, but dumped probably about 250 ml of alk and ca two part into my system, hanna checker revealed an alk of 14, up from my normal 8.3. So what next? I luckily have enough saltwater mixed to do probably a 50% water...

I can also come pick up tomorrow if anything is left

Looking forward to the new one!

woops, you're right, wrong picture, but I had the same experience with the orange one haha

My piece didn't do anything for months and months and has just now started to grow a bit, finally just left it somewhere since it wasn't dying and its doing good now.

Yeah he's the only Bangai, he occasionally still chases the other fish around, but mainly he's the main stalker of my cleaner shrimp.

Ever since I added another couple wrasses to my tank my bangai has gone from his dopey boring self to being aggressive, he chases them around but also chases other fish occasionally. Today I caught him biting the body of cleaner shrimp. Never noticed this behavior before, did some online...

Neither of mine made it, the bonus one I got RTN'd pretty fast after I got it, but my couchburn frag did well until my tank got to its hottest over the summer. Only one I lost to the heat

Next thing I did is try my experiment of using my 32 gallon brute RODI trashcan as my ATO reservoir. I am debating getting rid of the ATO reservoir that came with the tank, but for now I decided to just use two ATOs. I got a JBJ auto top off from @Rubyo and set it up today. There are a few...
