As the subject line states-
No more annoying "wiping hands after dunking in tank after trying 8 times to attach the suction cup on the glass to attach another sliver of Nori only to dunk your hands back in next feeding time OR better still, trying to remove dislodged from glass feeding clip...
This is my Blue tang trying to reach my feeding clip about an inch above water. They've eaten the seaweed clear out of the water, but was that enough?!? NO!!!!! Now he swims straight up from the bottom of the tank to reach up further and I finally caught him in the act!

Plastic coat hangers are cheaper
Zip ties right? Twist ties have metal in them :D
Here's when I did mine a few years ago. Funny how this hobby changes. I remember someone on RC making fun of my minimalist look after i got inspired looking at Japanese-style reef tanks, now there's articles...
Growth of the Orange Cap from Oct 3rd to Nov 11:
Growth of the Yellow Prostrata:
"Noteable Notes"
Day 1- first dose of 0.4 ml for 3 days
Day 4- ramp up to 0.8 ml for 4 days
Day 4 of dosage- max amount of particulate matter in water column, cleared by Day 7
Day 7 of dosage-...
Threw some comparisons in here so that I have a reference on growth and coloration. I'm gonna stick with the Reefluxes by themselves for now since I want to see the impact of reduced lighting has on my tank. I currently only run my halides on for 6-7 hours to begin with (actinics were 8-10...
well, that's the thing. I would love to get a Nikon branded one since I know its OEM, but there's no optics, so getting a third party would make sense. I didn't know you lose as much as two stops, so that's a consideration. I plan on using it with my Nikon 60mm macro, Olivier.
What have you...
Really really itching to go, but 3 hours down and 3 hours up is a bit tedious.... at least gas is cheaper than it was, but that's a long drive!
Itching bad.... we'll see when I wake up tomorrow, since I'm off anyways......
Here you go Wendy. I made it smaller since I didn't think anyone was interested in it-
The recipe if anyone is interested:
5 medium squid tubes, cleaned, frozen and GRATED while frozen
1/2 lb frozen shrimp, no shell and GRATED while frozen
3 fresh chowder clams, frozen and GRATED while frozen

Better late than never- here are some pics- sorry, no comparisons this week. too tied up with work.
One thing I noticed tonight after taking pics was the camera's auto focus. Some corals have gotten so much larger, or another coral in front of it has gotten larger that the camera is not able...
Did the bottle tell you? I'm sure you've figured it out already- if it were me, I'd take 7 days and divide that by the recommended dosage, and increase it everyday till the 8th.
Any updates wendy?
Man! Time flies in the fall doesn't it?!?! It's been a month since I started dosing the tank, and it seems shorter than that- Growth has increased on the tank from the addition of Ca and Mg, colors were getting better even prior to the switch of spectrum, all traces of Hair Algae are gone...
