here are some tank shots. not as impressive as the stand hehe!



right now i am exchanging saltwater using the litermeters to pump out water from the sump and pump in fresh salt mix at the same time. i usally mix up 10gls and exchange 5gls twice a week. it takes about 2 hours. i am considering just letting my pumps dose a little at a time over the week, but, since i travel, i would hate to empty one and over fill the other, and come home to a mess ;)

i removed the fish from the reef, so now there is no major bioload. everytime they would munch on the sea veggies, i would have thousands of pieces floating in the tank, not a pretty sight. and since i have a low turnover rate from the sump, it would stay suspended for days. so now i am considering using the main litermeter to dose phyto or zooplankton, but, due to my small evaporation rate (1/3gpd), i don't think that would be wise...




robertg, those ricordia i got from you look awesome in this lighting, they just need to get a bit bigger before i slide and dice them!
