Ed Reef's Shallow Crest Inspired ART

Ed, do you have any concerns that the plants will catch on fire due to the heat from the lights; that would be bad fung shui :(
 
Water parameter udpates…..

Water parameter udpates"¦..

And did my usual weekly 10% WC and check my water params as below:

"¢ Temperature "“ 26.5 degree C (light on for 3 hours)
"¢ Salinity Gravity "“ 34.5ppt (same as last week)
"¢ pH "“ 8.25 (light on)
"¢ NO3 "“ 0.00 (Salifert Test kit "“ same as last week)
"¢ PO4 "“ 0.008 (D&D Test kit "“ down from last week 0.03)
"¢ dKH "“ 7.0 (API test kit "“ drop from last week 8)
"¢ dKH "“ 7.5 (Elos test kit "“ drop from last week 8)
"¢ Ca "“ 420 (Salifert test kit "“ drop from last week 430)
"¢ Ca "“ 0.000 (Elos test kit "“ ran out of testkit)
"¢ Ca "“ 500 ?? (API test kit "“ way up from last week 440)
"¢ Mg "“ 1350 (Salifert test kit "“ up from last week 1290)
"¢ Mg "“ 1300 (Elos test kit "“ up from last week 1250)
"¢ Potassium "“ 400 to 410 range (Kz Test kit "“ same as last week)

Good to finally see my Po4 starting to come down"¦. Now the test tube color is almost transparent, with a slight tint of yellow"¦

This week I tried to used my Salifert NO3 test tube (the short and wide container) to test my API Ca and the reading went completely out of whack!! I think the most suitable size test tubes to used would be the Salifert Ca test tube size!!


Apart from that, I got some MIA fishes"¦.. can't seem to find my skunk Tilefish during this last 2-3 nights feeding"¦ I presume he must have jump during the week I was away as I saw him before I left. Also my anthias has been reduce to 3 numbers"¦not sure what happen there !!


:hmm6:

Glad the PO4 is coming down even more, but that sucks about the fish, hopefully you find them soon and they're all doing good. :)

Still no sign of the fishes and I ask my driver (who was taking care of my tank if he saw anything) and he 'swear' that he didn't see any bodies on the floor during these time :hmm6:
 
New fin friend….

New fin friend"¦.

Been a while since I added anything into my tank but over the weekend decided to bring this little friend back with me.

This pygmy angel is one of the smallest of the Centropyge family. He's been in quarantine for over 8 weeks already and eating"¦. Hopefully he will get along with my Flame Angel

I wish you luck! My flame picks on any fish I add to the tank. I just added a radiant wrasse 2" longer then him and he still fights with him!
 
If it makes you feel better i have a Centropyge argi (cherub pygmy angel) in with my flame angel and they don't bat an eye at eachother, they chased eachother for a little bit but after a week they were fine. (and they're in my 75 gal)
