Very nice Conner. It looks like you already grew out of your upgraded tank

 

[spartanomega21]

thanks Dan! its a bit messy but theres still a little room to grow. i am just working on my color now since the tank got a bit out of whack with my doser seizing up a few weeks ago and completely stopped dosing. but itll get there.
just picked up a gyre and new radiums this week as well which is pretty exciting

Thanks Ed.

it has been just over a year since the tank was put up and its already packed! 2 weeks ago i switched from mh to an ati 48" 8 bulb t5 light so i cant comment on long term affects but so far so good. no let up of growth yet. i am also attaching a 30g frag tank to the system this week so i can tidy up a bit and have room to grow out my palys/zoas.
i managed to go to reef-a-palooza NY a while ago and saw some cool stuff as well as picked up a few.
the tank has some algae popping in as i stopped running gfo, started running carbon more passively, and also have a bit more fish load with some new additions
well start with a new FTS!

Nice job............are you using LED for supplements?

I'm going to have to see your tank in person sometime soon.

 

[spartanomega21]

Yes the leds are for supplement as well as dawn/dusk. Its a mix of royal blue and blues. Youll have to check it out sometime Ed

Bump,

nice tank. I saw a post of yours in the SPS pest thread, without answer, that I wanted to talk to you about.

Did you ever identify that pest and/or get rid of it. These little guys are in my tank as well but ironically I only see them on corals with decent color.

While you're at it, can you update us on your tank?

 

[spartanomega21]

thanks markalot. i did some research and the only thing i came up with was Alteuthellopsis corallina... but it was just a guess none the less based on color and body shape.

i did get rid of them. im not sure if i got on top of it early on or they only like specific coral. they only seemed to be on my tubbs pink jade and another frag... i forgot which one. but i tried interceptor and revive dips which didnt do too much. i tore out the colony and tried bayer interceptor which scared me the first few dips with the "max" dosage (10 ml's Bayer/4oz water i think it was) for the dip but it destroyed them and the coral polyps were back out within a couple hours! i set up a small quarantine for a week and dipped them every couple days. havent seen them again
