A few pictures of my 400g reef

[melev]

Did some water tests last night.

Alk 11.5 dKH
Calcium 450ppm
Magnesium 1300ppm
Phosphate .1ppm

Here's proof. lol

I really want one of those!

i always wondered when this would come to market. With a lot of lab work background, it was an obvious addition to the aquarium trade. Brilliant to use a 3-d printer to make these. Will definitely buy one when it becomes available. As always, great video and demonstration melev

And some eye candy in my next post.

These tiny guys are just adorable. The pistol shrimp keeps burying that acan (you can kinda see it above), but I'm just trying to tolerate it.

Look at the markings on the Hi Fin red banded goby. I mean, really look:

Cool, right?

Wow that is cool!

SO COOL! What great pictures! I have always loved and admired the symbiotic relationship between Goby and Piston Shrimp, it's such a blast to view. Thanks for sharing!

Big fan on youtube! Your tank is absolutely beautiful.

Saw these tiny eggs today. Apparently they came from the tube worm / featherduster.

Going to have to change out a ballast today. And install some fresh carbon in a reactor.

I spy with my little eye a Flame Angel! :O I love those guys; I cannot wait to get one for my 125 gallon someday soon. Although I haven't seen them lately at the LFS...

The Flame Angel adds some really nice color to the reef. Did you spy Dory?

OMG I do indeed spy Dory! It took me a second but I see she is hanging out in the tank in the background. I found her! Guess I don't need to go see the movie now since she's already been found.

How about a nice blue picture to wrap up the month?

 

[TaylorPilot]

Love it. Especially how that huge colony is literally growing out of the tank. Really cool!

I'm trying to really keep on top of alkalinity these days.

 

[redsea01]

SO floored by those pictures. Thank you for sharing. Let me tell you, that is one HAPPY SPS without a doubt! lol Love it!

I'm sure you've said before, but where do you run your levels?
