How does the drop ATS control your phosphate and nitrates? Average test readings? I tried to run one my old 54 corner, but found it had a definite upper limit due to the small volume of water that entered the growth chamber.

to be honest, i haven't tested for N's n P's but it does produce some nice green GHA that i can harvest out frequently

I started to dose a small amount of trace elements into the tank. So far so good, two of the montiporas that were fading in color have gained it back and are growing again. Without large WCs I needed to replace the elements consumed by the corals and ATS.

Are you using the red sea colors?

No, I dose Two Little Fishes Sea Elements & Acropower.

I am in love with your acan and zoas! Just beautiful

Thanks! The acans did not grow for the majority of time that they were in the tank. I started feeding them more and they have really puffed up. Multiple heads developing now.

The zoas are a real success in the tank, I lost another colony not sure why. The colony has started to grow on adjacent rocks and glass.

Euphyllia island and the clowns hosting in the Colt coral.

Are you using a filter with your phone camera or just regular cell phone picture. The pictures are really nice

I also think it's funny how the clowns are in the softie (ID is slipping my mind) and not the nems.

My new Pixel 2, no filter or editing. My old phone did not handle the actinics well.

Tell me about! I have four RBTAs in the tank (started as one) and none of the four clowns has ever hosted in them.

haha WOW I'm sorry. Don't worry though. My clowns chose my cup coral to claim as their own

Orange plate, one of my favorite corals and the purple Monti that has taken every punch and continues to encrust.

Colt Coral. The pair of clowns love it.
