Is it cycled yet?

Haven't tested it yet since last time. That little crab has been in there a couple weeks already. Happy as can be. Got two of them with my cuc... Gonna do a test tomorrow when I get my permanent lights installed.

Ammonia 0.25, nitrite 0!

New lights!

Tank looks super bright.

I think it's time for you to test for nitrate. I don't think that ammonia reading is correct. You had nitrite before and now you have none but your ammonia is still showing a small reading? I'm gonna say that that puppy is cycled if you have a good amount of nitrates and would say that ammonia reading is false

Last time I tested nitrate it was like over 50

I'll test for nitrate when I get back home... Stepped out for dinner with my son

How do you like the night light?

 

[SpartaReef]

Much better with simulated moon light than complete darkness

 

[SpartaReef]

Skipped nitrate test, going to do a water change tomorrow and recheck all parameters

But yes it does look better and has some faint color to it (the hammer). Got my rodi set up. Running the first start up water now. This thing is fast. Does a gallon a minute it flush mode. Lol. That'll slow down with actual filtration.

 

[SpartaReef]

Thanks

 

[sparky45]

That explains it.

 

[SpartaReef]

Got a total of four gallons of filtered water in an hour. Pretty nice system. Thanks for suggesting it Justin.

 

[SpartaReef]

Got my system setup to auto top off... Filing up rodi reservoir. Then I can test the setup
