During my weekly waterchanges on the biocube I will try to take a coral or two from the biocube to introduce it to the big tank. Corals taken will only be frags so incase something else happens the mother colonies in the cube are constantly regrowing back the trimmed area, this week it will be...

I wish mine was cleaner, I have no skills with appearance.

So strange yeah I like it without the divider but I figure the divider helps with support

Try to open it up all the way and maybe have to lift it up more, I had mine raised on these cups that were a few inches tall. Also interesting I never seen a setup with out the wood in the stand dividing it.

What kind of skimmer is it?

Greg I am pritty sure used microbacter 7 along with micro clean I think and also kept introducing coraline algea in the tank frequently

I didn’t use any bottled bacteria, just threw in three chromis which is a slower version of the bottled bacteria. I really would avoid adding anything to the tank. When you add bacteria you are introducing bacteria that a system doesn’t sustain on its own at a manageable level. Within a week of...

Greg carrol on Instagram deffinitly has success with dry marco rock and dry sand . I have a tank of marco and dry sand going now so I’ll let you know when something goes amiss, but so far so good.

I would let that skimmer run, raise it up in the water for the time being so it doesn’t fill that cap too fast and just remove what starts to build. It won’t look like the normal dark green skimate we are used to it’s more of just cloudy white bubble water

I wish I could get detectable phopahates or any phopahates leaching from the rock. I started the tank with dry sand, and dry marco rock that I’m super sure had never touched a fish tank. I then filled the tank with about 20 gallons of the dirtiest water from my biocubes waterchanges. I got about...

I started the tank with reef crystals which originally had my alk at 11.2 and calcium was at 500. Within a week and a half of just letting the water run and the dry rock inside with cheato in the sump the alk dropped to 6.8. With you having a coral in there I would deffinitly test to see the...

Looking good man I also setup a 130.4 in January and can’t wait to move my tiny biocube into the mammoth tank! I like your scape.

Here are some actinic shots of the corals in the big tank

Time to let the colorup game begin

Bud you got to get one of those lenses for your phone and get used to taking steady photos with your phone I want to see that orange passion.

Orange Setosa is about as orange as you can get. Then for tenuis there’s orange passions. They are kinda green until you get it super happy and then get a nice clementine orange appearance.

About a year ago in April.

Transfered my favorite blasto colony from the biocube. This one looks sick because when it’s not so fluffy the inner part is yellow to orange and swirls to a red. Also got a hippo and a powder blue tang to help add to the nitrates. These photos were from the first day, since then the powder tang...

Here is some progression pics of this millie.

An ich free tank is impossible. Just got to keep stress down, feed extremely well with good vitamin enriched food and they should be able to ward it off.
