    I have been considering dosing sodium nitrate to raise nitrates. I found this product that other reefers have used, but I am having a bit of trouble with the calculations. https://www.etsy.com/listing/222600000/sodium-nitrate-8-ounces-fine-powder-996/

    Brown jelly disease?

    I sucked off as much of the brown jelly as I could, set off all circulation and then removed the whole colony before chopping off the infected heads and the head closes to the infected piece. I tried moving the coral out as slowly as possible and continued sucking out whatever pieces I saw...

    Lazy Reefers Waterbox 20 cube

    Nice progress! How do you like the Kessil compared to the primeHD? Any reasoning behind why you went with the Kessil instead?

    Jawbreaker’s colors

    Same with mine, tiny red speck showed up about 6 months of growing it from penny size to half dollar. It popped out 4 babies at about the year mark though.
