I have put it in and so far so good no bad effects I have yet to add the 1 ml of zinc per week but might leave that .I will post the icp results later as lots people chase numbers. I have pulled 3 colonies out 2 on the frag rack at the side but it still looks full and my sunset milli frag is showing good growth and I thought it would be slow also my bali sc.are frag is showing a bit colour no red skin yet but green hue changing.

Thanks guys
Going make some changes for the new year I treated myself to a xmas present and have 9 new corals on the way I found a dealer who has some from the famous Aussie farm .I'm not going to push my luck until they arrive but expectations are high . Hope everybody on the forum has had a good xmas and have a great new year.

Bill

Cheers, first set back we are having heavy over night frosts at the minute so changed delivery date to a Saturday delivery as temps going up to 7C roll on summer we usually get a couple of nice days in the UK if we are lucky.

Hi
Xmas present arrived , I have added a rock to the back and right hand side I am trying to give some height .The frags are on the sandbed until I decide which have travelled best and starting to show some colour its a dodgy time and could easily lose some especially spaths as I know for me are difficult at the best of time

Awesome! I would love to see pics once they settle in. Your birdsnest colony is massively massive . Cool tank, I need to read the whole thread before I ask questions.

Hi
Finally got lights better i copied another reefers idea to tank mount the front orpheks and on the back i have a radion gen3 pro and a xr15 gen4 pro it appears to be giving me full coverage on the tank.The new frags are seeing light so fingers crossed they will colour up.I added extra rock to raise them up and also added the peach and purple spaths out of the reach of the big cat.Need to set the lights up but heres some pics excuse quality

Thanks , Got a bit done this week i replaced both gyre impellors and cages makes hell of a difference ,topped up the pellets and all the usual maint in sump.I ordered a couple of corals by overnight and they came browned out so sending them back ,I have added some more rock to the back and added a nice spath im hoping to keep this as i have had issues with spaths but i now have 5 in so will see how it goes. A couple of pics today
