Sump needs some tidying, and a bigger uv filter.

And yes the tang is a right fatty

tanks looking good! one thing ill mention, i have that same dosing container just watch that the lid doesnt bow as evaporation has been a problem for me. It causes the alk to get stronger over time.

Will keep an eye on it.

Thanks :)

They are Sunrise Marine Reef LT2040 WIFI ProReef LED. They are brilliant. Can download a wifi app. Can control white, blues and uv. As well as cloud/lightning. And can control lights building up nd coming down over 6 time periods a day. Really good growth and very cheap compared to most other options.

Few pics of the rock work now it's all settled in a bit more. Need a bit more sand but not sure of the best way to add it without making a right mess. Even rinsing its always a nightmare

Just a suggestion: Wash out your new sand as usual and put it in a strong plastic bag; just a bit at a time, maybe a half pound.

Then lower the bag of wet sand down to the bottom and tip it out of the bag where required. Since the sand is already wet it won't produce as much of a cloud as dry sand, and since you're already at the bottom it has less distance to travel.

If your near a LFS that produces a lot of RODI water, you can have them rinse your sand in a bucket using the waste water from the RODI third stage. The waste water is extremely clean.
 
Small update... Nothing new really.losy my 2yr old sand sifting star fish :(

Fairly sure my big nem is about to split again. Had to move my stylo as the smaller nem is growing at a ridiculous rate. Fish are all happy. Will be getting some new corals in 2 weeks after working away for a bit

Well not much going on here. Tanks not had a great coupla months. Got a puppy (ended up getting ot a lot sooner than expected) and the tank took a major back seat. Then ended up in a&e on 30th dec and been off work since. Had a few big kidney stones removed, had a stent put in between kidney and bladder. Had that removed a couple of days ago and been having a sh1t time since.

I have put the tank setup for sale. Will replace with a nano if it does sell. Just dont have the time (or space really) with the dog now.

Lost all my sps. All my candycanes and duncans. Gutted. Had all been doing do well and had so mich growth :'( checked the system and realised my doser pioes had all blocked up, doubt that helped.

Also lost my fire shrimp and my red apot blenny

Water tests are all fine. Regular water changes too. So no idea whats going on.

Got given a few corals and fish the other day.

The culprit puppy, pedigree male Hungarian vizsla. 18 weeks and 18kg now. Named him Goshi (Japanese for soldier) hes awesome. Just hard work

So sad you put it up for sale. I understand the life changing items including the animal. LOL

A bit of work and some new pipes/lines and automate a few things would make/take things off you a bit.

Well you said your doser blocked up. I was thinking about those mostly. Things to help make it easier for you.

Was trying to help boost your spirits some.

Sorry about the wedding... I have all boys here, so it is not as pricy.

Found another coral killing culprit... Been in bed or hosp for last month so not noticed my light settings, was changing them today and thw whites and blues had been at 100% for 3 hours every lunchtime. Doubt that helped as usually run blues at 75 and whites at 40 at their highest. Bah!
