I've been following through with my goal of weekly 10% water changes and as a result I've noticed my nutrient levels have begun to come down and my nuisance algae appears to be less prevalent than before. I've also seen my ulva diminish and had an uptick in GHA, but still a reduction nonetheless.
Additionally, I set up a refugium using chaeto and a spare led I had lying around that's currently on a 12 hour reverse photoperiod. I didn't see chaeto growth for a week or so at the beginning, but it's been booming ever since.
This is after about 4 weeks of growth and I threw out the majority of the chaeto last weekend.
This leads to the most recent news. I'm trying my hand at acros again after picking up some beautiful pieces from @dandemeyere who provided me with an incredible deal and I can't thank him enough. As an aside, I'm inspired by where Dan lives and I hope to be in that area at some point in the future.
