Yeah pretty cool. Do you ramp the lights down? I wonder if it's responding to the light levels.

Thanks Juan and Wilson. @ericrodriguez It's an MP40. After experiment for a while I use the short pulse mode mostly @70%. The Mag seems to like the wave motion. SPS are growing faster now especially these in the tank for a while. Plan to take a while every few months to compare the growth.

Tank is getting better after eliminating the hair algae. SPS has shown some growth. Rearranged right side of the tank to accommodate the new H. Magnifica. I think I am all set for a while and will let the corals fill in.

For us reefers, not worth the admission. but kids probably enjoyed it. Many years ago went to Paris and visited an aquarium there. Small aquarium but a lot of biotope tanks. A lot to look in each tank. Even Jenkenson aquarium in point pleasant have some interesting tanks. America aquariums...

My salinity calibration fluid is 10 years old and I probably used it twice LOL.

I went to petco and saw a pair of cinnamons and couldn’t resist. Thanks for the info!

Does the banded goby stay mostly on the bottom? Interesting fish. I used to see them all in the time back in the day at Tropiquarium. They also get quite large right?

That's nice. Thanks! Do they come in directly from the distributor, like Quality Marine?

For the XR15's, I just chose whatever looked good to me eyes. My Magnifica anemone is supposed to like warmer light. On that side I run the light at 100%. On the other side which is mostly sps frags I run 50% but I am slowly going up to 100% also. I have not measured par for years. I am guess...

Yeah would definitely want a sand sifter. Not all diamond gobies will survive though. I had one before and it didn't last. I have seem them in Petco from time to time ...

It jumped for the one day the cover was not on. Love the fish now in the hunt for a new one or something similar. It kept the sandbed clean. The leopard wrasse and cleaner wrasse used to follow it around as it sifted sand for pods.

I have the same setup. I actually forgot what setting the Radion is on. By itself it ramps very blue but whitish during the day. I do have 2 b+, 1 c+ and 1 actinic though. got the configuration from Roca best configuration I have seem for SPS. The T5's dominate but the Radions still gave nice...

love playing the color up game. I have one in my tank as well.

No my skimmer is normal. I do have a filter sock which might be a factor. On top of the reef frenzy I usually add a few scoops of reef chili or reef roid so the tank is full of particles. I don’t think my skimmer is sensitive to particles. I don’t turn it off either.

Hmm it’s a good size tank so unless you have dumped half a lb of reef frenzy it’s just not possible. Maybe find someone close by to test for you.

Phosphate going from 0.07 to 1.3? That’s a huge jump. I feed LRS all the time liberally and never experienced this. I would suspect testing error.

Simple BRS pumps work well. Have used for years.

Here’s a picture through my webcam. There is only one wire and overall this setup look slicker than just the Radions.

Love the WB tanks I have WB 100.3. I had one XR30 and two XR15's on my WB 100.3. still a lot of shadows. Now I have two XR15's and a 4 tube T5 hybrid very bright and still getting the the LED shimmer which I like.

I bought mine a couple years ago from premium aquatics. It’s not that much different from the caribseas offerings so I have been buying caribsea. Cheaper and widely available.
