nubiantanglover i tried many times to respond to your last pms but it kept getting denied because your mailbox was full so dont think i was ignoring you. feel free to ask away if you have more questions

Niloc,

Thanks so much for letting me know about my PM mailbox. I am erasing old PMs today. BTW: I have almost totally defeated the algae bloom I've had. I purchased a Phosphate Reactor by TLF. However, My sump is leaking at the bulkhead again. This time, I am going to totally replace that bulkhead and toss the silicone.

few new additions to show ya

 

[niloc16]

i had to recently change my ca media and i did not adjust my co2 for it and in a couple days it jumped my alk to 18dkh which bloomed cyano. so i have the alk back down and slowly the nasty cyano is pulling back but man it is nasty looking. having a boost in coral growth lately which i'm not complaining about. i have had to do a bunch of fragging. the small rack i made in the tank is busting from the seems with frags. i need to figure out someway of getting a frag tank in the stand so i can do some serious fragging. heres a few new top downs for ya guys
