My daughter plays for her HS Ultimate Frisbee team and a club team in the bay area. We will be traveling to Santa Monica (during the potluck) and then Santa Barbara for a tournament

Nice! I played in Santa Barbara for like 7 years

I got this super cool Macro Algae from a buddy. Can someone help identify it?

Tank update:
I finally broke the norm and tested my water. I start dosing my tank more. Currebrky dosing All4Reef and Nitrare. Finally, set up my Trident but it was broken but thanks to @Turkeysammich for fixing it. Next on to do list is to calibrate my PH probe My tank is a mess. I need to get rid of the aiptasias in there. I need to redo my rock work for more spaces. Here . Here are the updated FTS of my tank. Thanks to @asfor for giving me his photo viewer.

I can't get a bigger box but I add a smaller box next to it. Thanks to Will @Turkeysammich , Erin @Kensington Reefer for helping me tear down my sump (filled with macro aglae) and plumbed a IM 30L ext tank to it. Thanks to @derek_SR and @Darkxerox for pushing me to do this. It was a 5-8 months of waiting to do this. Here are some pictures. More pictures later as I move corals around.

It came out really good. Perfect fit too.
But cleaning that sump. Man it stank

Thanks @boun11 for being an awesome long time member and showing us your tank!

@Coral reefer
Mikes has an empty 3x6 flat
Dry and waiting
Your wife might make you sleep in it though

Well, it is Erin’s problem now! It went to his tank

 

[Kensington Reefer]

They are in with tank mates now
But will probably move them to their own tank
Hopefully they’ll continue to spawn

I will have to deal with this tomorrow. Small leaks. Good thing I caught it before going to bed.
