quick update


tank is currently fast cycling, what i meant by fast, I started it with cured rock, and Live Reef Sand by CaribeSea. also I have been introducing bacteria using Seachem STABILITY. and I will be seeding the tank with few more pieces of rock from my 30g cube, as I will be transfering the few items and 2 small fishes by this weekend (after 7 days) since I do need a way to keep the cycle up, the 2 small fishes should produce a bit of ammonia to help cycle.


also one more item I received and it is ORANGE

week 2 update

the live stock on my 30 g has been transferred on Sunday, all seem good so far. I also added a,large bottle of Bio-Spira as an added supplement of live nitrifying bacteria that detoxify ammonia and nitrite.

here are some pics of the live stock

BTW currently I am running the SPS 14000 Kelvin Custom Program from AQAMAI LRM, and by custom, I meant I changed the time from 7am Sunrise, 11am Mid-Day Full Sun, 3pm ramp down, 7pm off, the new times are 9am Sunrise, 12noon Mid Day Full sun, 5pm ramp down, 9pm lights off.

the picture above is on ramp-down mode

They are good and I can control them via Alexa, App or Manual.

Thanks.... It is coming along nicely, but unfortunately since the covid 19 stay at home I have not been able to buy more coral. So it is the same just a little bigger corals as they have grown.

Equipment is working good, most I got from Amazon and eBay.

Unfortunately, I killed most of my corals last week when I used VIBRANT to eliminate algae , it did removed the algae, but also immediately killed my SPS!

Stay away from that garbage, it killed 11 different corals, Across, Birdnest, etc. All got shocked and bleached within days... I did an emergency water change and heavy skimmed, added new Carbon but too late.

I only dosed once the 1ml per 10 gal it said..
