Here is also a picture of the sump which I went lights out on because of the addition of my new algae scrubber I also added a small power head Because this area will become a frag area. Cyano is all gone.

A little late with the video this week but this is after two weeks of dosing vibrate I really haven’t noticed much change at all in the tank but they say it takes time. Also here are the latest tank numbers.

Be Careful with miracle grow it’s almost pure nitrate

Yea I don’t ever shoot it always roll and brush. Probably to thin with the gun.

You have to use Bin primer, and not the blue can water based one. You need the red label can which is shilack based. Will kill it in one coat.

Awesome

Yes it will prime itself. I have a 1/4” line to toe bottom of my first tote and it has no problem priming itself. I’ll try and take a couple pictures tomorrow

I’m using a booster pump the same booster pump that’s on my well line For the RO partI just switch it off with valves

looks great Ju

Yes this would probably help but that would also drop my phosphate and No3 levels even lower then what they are and i want them to stay the same or even a bit higher on the no3. plus i doubt it very much it would remove the bubble algae once that takes hold its here to stay.

Here it is week 1 results, not much to see yet but here’s the Video. also here is a picture of the cyano in the sump. The numbers haven’t changed since last week so I’m not going to re post them.

I use RC and I’m thinking of changing to another salt. As Amado said it mixes to different numbers all of the time not much consistency at all.

I dump on my back patio and front walk

Maybe you should start with a smaller dose. I also change 20 gallons of water a week and my tank is a 120 with a 40 gallon sump. So nothing ever really builds up

I have some algae but it was there before I started the reef energy so I can’t say that it’s caused it.

Alk 7.7 to 8.5 Phos .03 Mag last time was 1460 No3 2.5 Salinity 1.026 Temp 77 to 78 Calcium is 470 Have been pretty stable for a couple months and corals seem to be doing good I also dose reef energy and the color in the corals seem a lot better.

The two purples in my qt look good and are swimming and eating great no signs of any problems. they are also being treated with copper

Well water is fine after the rodi, only thing You will have to do if you have CO2 in your well water like I do is you have to pump it through the RO into a bucket bubble it for 24 hours and then run it to the DI chamber otherwise the CO2 from the well water will eat your DI resin in one or two...

Hate to say this Mark but maybe a fresh start is in order. seems it’s been a while of struggling for you maybe a clean start is what the Dr. orders

Great tank, good luck
