Hey Chingchai,

Do you turn off your skimmer & reactors when you're dosing the Nutra Kol? I'd turn off the Carbon reactor (vodka dosing so no Phosphate reactor) and skimmer for at least one hour before I turn them all back on.

BTW ... more than glad to assist in any way possible :mixed:!!

I didn't turn off anything.
But skimmer can't skim for a while because of Nutra Kol.

This is my first time posting on your thread. Its taken me quite awhile to read threw this whole thread. I only have access to the internet when im at work and its an inbound call center. Lol may get in trouble reading this thread but i cant seem to stay away. Its a great looking tank. You can tell you spent alottttt of time on it and have a great passion for it. One thing that really suprized me is you take the time to thank everyone for their posts when we should all be thanking you for sharing this with all of us. Love the tank and thanks for the updates.

Right, thank you for your response. I had not thought about doing that untill you mentioned it here. That's a brilliant strategy. Is it difficult to place them so that they hold on the rock and yet if you decide to replace them you can take them off without damage??

It is not so difficult to place or remove the coral.
You have to choose a good shape of live rock.
Flat rock type is not workable.
 
chingchai after following this thread since the beginning I have to say that my favorite tank was your previous tank but this new tank is even more spectacular.

The high def photos are amazing. I have them in my desktop to enjoy every day.

I just adjusted slightly the colors, lighting and sharpness and these are the results. I hope you don't get upset for the change in colors.

Luis. Thank you for your kind words.
You are very kind to adjust the pictures.
They look very nice. Thanks for taking your time.
 
Hey Chingchai,

Those Aussie Orange sponge is in fact called Trikentrion flabelliforme - White Line Sponge. Over the weekend I picked up one large piece and glued it to one side of rockwork and I was surprised to see that my Mexican Turbo snails were already cleaning it ... ;)

Trying to experiment to see if it'll survive long term with Nutra Kol feedings as well as Phytoplanktons.

Luisgo ... do you do photo retouching work professionally or as a hobby?

Photography is just one of my hobbies.

I think that post processing of photos is even more important than to take the photo. No matter the camera you use, white balance is very difficult because of the lights we use in our aquariums which are very blue.

Another challenge is to balance the light in the tank and the surroundings like in the photo with the club members.
