Amazing! NOW it is looking good. Not bashing on triton but I had exactly the same experience you did. Now that o switched to 3 part dosing and taken the refugian offline my tank is also looking rather nice (not D2Mini Nice, but works for me ) Need to get my build thread up... been saying that for almost two years now...

Thanks!

And with Triton's supply and demand issue this past year, container issues, and now changing some of it to powder form, I'm glad I got out and haven't had to deal with that.

Incredible tank!
Do the mangroves actually work well at extracting nutrients or are they more just an enjoyable plant to look at My lights aren't all that high off the water level so they likely would outgrow them pretty quickly |

For the past month I have a daily fluctuation of 7.7 - 8.03 or so, with my Alk averaging around 7.5 dkh.
My reactor is getting low on media and i've had to increase the co2. Need to fill that back up.

Last week I added the Kamoer FX-STP pump to my CaRx and this weekend I added the second chamber. The pump has been working like a champ.

If 3-6 want in on a buy I will, or someone else, can order a roll & split it up & include shipping to those that need it. Saves us all.
Interested please put your name down.

Ali does not list the tubing anymore.
Checked around & best I can find is $2.41/foot in a 25 foot length.

I'd be in for some if you order.
Hopefully I don't have to worry about it for awhile.

What hardware did you use to mount the GHL Power Bars? I know it has notches on the back for screws. Just curious what you used, if you remember specifically. It could possibly save me some time searching at the hardware store.
