LadySaber Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 cleaned the glass. Traded in some GSP, pulsing xenia and chateo for ro water. Still being lazy about mounting my OR over my tank. Now if your speaking about in my mind............wellllllllllll that's a whole different story.. I upgraded to a 100+ gallon tank (2) in fact. Have all the cool chalices I can get my hands on. Oh and have a dwarf golden eel... LOLOLOL oh an unlimited credit card I never have to pay to get anything I want for my mind tanks.. yep that's what I have been doing... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald525 Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 I had been eyeing that bazooka joe chalice for weeks Jeremy! Nice one to get! Was always one of my favorites! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsBret Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 We added a big snowflake morey eel. It's so fun to watch the yellow tang tease him into thinking he's food and then swim quickly away while the eel bites blindly into nothing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope the yellow tang doesn't have a slow moment or he will never play that game again! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes I'm amazed he isn't bitten! He's such a tease all day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectra Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Well bought a bunch of zoas from Rudy and also few from CnC. Added a new fish also......need to get a diamond goby also I think to clean the sand a little bit. Just not into those sand spitters though...... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexinverts Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I set up a Seneye monitor in my office tank, and I have been having fun watching the daily pH swings and the ammonia spikes after I feed the fish. One thing I noticed is that on weekends when I am not in my office, the pH gets higher during the day than it does when I am in the office puffing CO2 into the air. When I am in the office during the day the pH gets up to 8.3 and when I am gone on a weekend it gets up to 8.43! Didn't you see this too, Jeremy, with your Apex? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbeyer80 Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Finally got my 40b running after 2 1/2 years of looking at it collecting dust. So far I have 40b with 15 gal sump running asm mini g skimmer, kessil a360w for light, ecotech return pump. May add another kessil depending on coverage not planning a sps heavy tank Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorge Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Well since you ask I guess I'll share Here are my newest additions still in quarantine:incredible hulk lepto, predator blood favia, jf crazy fox, emerald eye, bazooka joe, pink boobies, purple watermelon and skittles favia. The skittles did not react so well to the iodine dip. I'll stick with bayer.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wondering if feeding caused a spike, so cool you can see that real time. How do you like the par meter function? Yes, when I am gone on vacation, the PH is much higher in the tank per the apex, I really need more fresh air exchange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't know about chalice danger, good to know. Thanks for sharing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot remember if you have other tanks running currently also? How do you like the ecotech return pump, which model is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cannot remember if you have other tanks running currently also? How do you like the ecotech return pump, which model is it? I currently have a overloaded 14g cube running. The 40 has been going for about a month and a half but just added the skimmer and light a few days a go. I added some zoas the same time as the light as all the levels of ammonia nitrite and nitrate fell off the chart but my wife sent me a pic tonight of a diatom bloom in action and I'm 600 miles away at work (should have listened to the little voice saying patients my friend). As for the ecotech I can't remember exactly what model as I'm away from home this week but if I remember correctly it's around 750 gph Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reefnjunkie Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 Prep for the big tank swap, I set up a 110 gallon temp tank, moved over a bunch of LPS along with the boulder that the lakers scroll coral is growing on. Its going to tough getting the rest of LPS in the temp system so I bet some will go into the acan system THEN there are all the fish-it's going to be a busy weekend but I'm really looking forward to the new look with a new rock scape etc 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexinverts Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 (edited) Awesome! I was wondering if feeding caused a spike, so cool you can see that real time. How do you like the par meter function? Yes, when I am gone on vacation, the PH is much higher in the tank per the apex, I really need more fresh air exchange. The par meter works well, but not for continuous monitoring. You have to change the orientation of the sensor so that it points up at the light in order to get a reading. Since the whole system is about the same price as an apogee meter, it was well worth the purchase.

BoringDave Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I have changed all my plumbing to herbie, added some real nice corals and a few fish since my build thread started. I'll snap some pics and update my thread tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LC Scott Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I've added 17 new zoas to the frag tank in the last month and a half., I believe that brings me up to 25 different zoas Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
