I'm using the hyger mini. My nem hides from it.

Still trying to figure out the last 2 last fish to put in my tank. Have the Azure damsel my better half had to have(been a model citizen so far) and the Bicolor Blenny (so far has been good not picking on coral).

Noticed this morning that the anemone hitchhiker has sent off a baby. Found it at the front glass and it is tiny. I removed from the tank and will get the bigger one this evening or tomorrow evening. It’s on an easy rock to get to but I will tick off my bicolor and he lives under that rock.

For those that might be curious I’m running the Pennywise Deadlights 81%. Here is the what the schedule looks like for daylights and evening blues.

Added abut 15 pounds of cured rock from a guy that was shutting down his system. Gave it an entirely different look. Will probably do some more scaping until I get it where I want it. Have more room to the back of the take to open the front more. But with the single prime you can definitely see the shadowing effect.

Ordered an InTank Refugium basket this morning and a fuge light from Amazon. Would have ordered all from InTank but I had a credit at Amazon and the same light only cost me $2.29. Now I need to find some Chaeto locally if possible if not then I have to buy a tennis ball piece from algebras for $45 bucks but would add some pods to that as well.

Got the Chaeto in a jar for now with fresh saltwater and in a windowsill for light. Will be adding tank water to keep the nutrients up for it. Should have the Refugio basket by Wednesday hope it survives that long in a jar.

Added the InTank refugium basket today along with and ACKE grow light. Hope this chaeto grows and will help reduce NO3 and PO4 a little. Going to run it on reverse light schedule for 12 hours and see what happens.

Been tracking calcium use and I’m dropping about 10pm a week. Picked up some calcium chloride this morning and made a gallon. Will slowly raise the calcium up to 450 over the next 3 days. It’s sitting at 400 as of yesterday afternoon.

Not sure how I’m using .3ppm of alkalinity a day do LPS and coralline algae use that much?
LPS that I have
3 head favia
2 head torch
1 head hammer
1 head duncan
4 head acan
I know this is tiny compared to other systems but this means I’m going to need to get a dosing pump or two with summer work travel coming up.

Received the K7 pro V3 the other day can’t wait to get it on the tank. Out of town this week but on Tuesday I’m renting the PAR meter from LFS to set the lights to the Prime HD that I’m currently using them plan to increase it over 3-4 weeks a little at a time.

Looking forward to seeing the results. I am currently waiting on my IM 25 lagoon this month. Plan to shut down my IM 15. I do have the K7 mini's and pro V3. Debating on using the single Pro V3 or the 2 K7 mini's for better light spread.

Hoping to have it up and going Tuesday. My LFS is closed on Mondays so have to wait. I won’t be back until Sunday evening either. I didn’t want to go two mini’s as I have things in the changes that I didn’t want a bracket to interfere with.
