I am dodging your main question :D but might have a useful tip until you decide which direction to go in. Is it possible to point your auto top off at the end of your AFR dosing line so it could potentially clean off the crystal buildup for you? Someone mentioned this to me on humblefish but...

I wish my Dentist had a tank!

Were you not doing this (auto testing and auto water changes) on the previous tanks? Sorry I should have been more clear with my previous question. You mentioned that it is growing at a rate you had not experienced when compared to your previous tanks.That made me wonder if you are doing...

Do you have any theories as to why?

Make sure to test it at the water level you are leaving for vacation at. Water that high up might create a siphon.

They look good though. Maybe they just need more time to settle in before taking off? That fox corals looks very happy. I don't see many of them around. Cool coral.

Thank you guys! Sorry for derailing your journal. tubes- They are the small type that grow out of light and underside of rock (I dont know what they are called). I had the goni in the shade to recover for a while. I will brush off the algae and vacant tubes.

The one I picked up from you in 2020 is trying its hardest to come back from the dead. I am not sure if I should leave it alone or frag out the dead stuff.

Looking really good! Is that the/your Randy's Flaming Lotus in the back right on sand bed of the video?!

Wow great raffle prizes! fishtanksdirect website has more information on the lights and appears to be selling them.

It sounds like you could benefit from more herbivores in your tank. Richard Ross has some great talks about algae. I think Richard would argue that water changes will do little to nothing to help limit algae. I think water changes are great for many things but not so much for limiting algae...

Hikari claims theirs to be from brackish. I wonder where they are collecting from and also if brackish has advantages or disadvantages.

We agree here.

I watched the latest youtube circuit Allan went on but have no plans of trying myself. I like watching in on others trying new things. Would an instapot pressure cooker be considered an autoclave? I hear Telegraham recommending that for the sterilization.

Yes, it could happen. Check the overflow/vent.

Looks good! and your water is always looking crystal clear. Big fan of the wave and its dead-spot killing abilities. I use the wave box and absolutely love it. Blocked one of my return outlets to be able to utilize it. Glad I did.

Hey Alex, I am curious what occurs with your phosphate readings after stopping kalkwasser. Does phos go up?

Reefi uno has a great par to $ ratio among many other selling points. Several members run them and speak highly of them. @Darkxerox is one I can easily recall. I have one on the shelf waiting to add to my current 3 Radion G5s.

That was my favorite coral. If it was showing tentacles I would try and feed it. Got it from Waldo's display in Pleasanton Wet Pets.

Lurking around reefcentral I noticed some of my old photos had photobucket watermarks through them. So I paid the 5 bucks to reopen my account for a month. I will figure out a better way to store them than photobucket. Might as well save a couple here! Jaebo tank about 40 gallons with t-5...
