Awesome very close to me I’ll be there!

Yes it is dinos, took a sample to LFS and they put it under the microscope. Dosing phosphate and nitrate to hopefully slowly bring everything up this week. So far inverts seem ok except I have not seen my sand conch since I got back yesterday.

Hi, I found two of my corals, GSP and Zoas affected by a white substance this morning. Pics attached but not very good at showing the problem. Tank parameters are, Alk 8.5, pH 7.9, phos 0, Ca 427, Mg 1465, Ammo 0, Nitrite 0, Nitrate 0. Tank has been up and running since end of October...

Great are you in the Denver area?

Are your dosing pumps still available? If so how old are they? Thanks!

Hello! February tank update :) Tank survived well after I left for 10 days with great care from my son (water change, dosing, feeding he did a great job). Getting ready to add more fish, hopefully this weekend. We will need some good algae eaters maybe a tang, shrimp, and watchman goby.

Wish I could make this but I will be out of town. Next time!

Algae is really going now. My little clean up crew is making some dents. I’m going to Aquatic tomorrow to get reinforcements. Would putting more corals in at this point help compete with the nutrients or would it be best to wait time between putting in more corals?

Tank is 36 x 21x21. They are mounted 9” above the water surface. I would love to get them on WiFi so any help would be great. Thanks!

Thanks! I would love more easy SPS! I did pick up 6 Blue legged hermits and one turbo at Elite Reef, they happened to be open New Year’s Eve. I should have gone with their recommended 12 hermits but was afraid of bio load. These guys are awesome cleaners. Did half the tank the first day! I think...

I am set up on AP right now for some reason I could not get the WiFi to work. AP is working well. I did only go only 40% on the highest as it seemed very bright. Here is what my schedule is

Awesome! Would love some more corals. I’m going to hold off adding anything till February cause I will be out of town the last week in January and I want things to be stable. I’ll let you know when it is ready for more. Thanks!

Hi all! Update on my tank build. Decide on the Noo-Psyche lights and received them last Tuesday. Thanks for the reco they look great. Also got a gift card for aquatic arts for Christmas and took a trip this weekend. My water parameters were testing well there so they recommended a few corals now...

Just started looking into corals to start with. I came up with these: Zoanthids Sinularia leather Toadstool Xenia Duncan Candy cane Bubble List can certainly change depending upon lighting needs and budget :) the tank is 36 x 21 x 21 Thanks for all the comments!

Hello all! New to the saltwater realm but have had freshwater for a while. Excited for this new adventure! Finally got my tank cycled and added the first fish. This is my new eshoppes 70g with sump. Thanks to @Stithe for some great setup items! Looking forward to adding more in a few weeks...
