All looks good. Hope it continues this way.
I hope so.
When I back to Taiwan I will start working on the auto water change system.
Hope it is not difficult.

I am not skillful on pictures edition by Win 8 so it is hard for me to make a beautiful pic on this update.
Below pictures are took from my monitors in the past 2 months. The only change is I change 50L water in 8/1 when I back to Taiwan for meetings.
So this time it almost 80 days without me to take of them. And most of them go well but not grow as before. I do believe it from the organic nutrition rise.
But I still very confidence on my system.

I move the camera angle thru. App in China by accident on 8/15. So took 5 pictures to try to get it as before.
The picture I used was wrong and when I found it I can not edit it at all. So I post the correct one in following.
That is why I post anther picture which I took on 8/15.

Because work and my personal vacation plan, I need to go abroad some times especially in Winner vacation and Summer vacation.
This times I pass 2 months without anyone take care of my reef tank again.
I gave myself A+ for the situation of this summer vacation.
I assume below points for helping me pass the 2 months.
1.My friend ART recommend me to use Abyzz pump.
2.My friend Hippo recommend me to use Apex+GHL dosing
3.My friend NOK's invention KH monitor
4.My friend Shih spent two years to ask me use the sand bed.
5. Still Shih ask me add Remote Surveillance system.
Below are the details
1.ART recommend me to use Abyzz pump
I was use one RD pump only but my friend's tank use two as standard. So I use two main pumps in my sump in this new tank.
On 7/30 when I back for Meeting in Taiwan I found my RD pump has problem but I can not move it during this short trip. so I increase the power on Abyzz from 42% up to 70%. In the same time I turn off the RD pump. Without Abyzz I will never pass these two monhts.
8/31 when I open the ccase of RD pump I found one thing...It is stupid decision I made 6 months ago.
In the same date I put on the new pump RD3 in the tank.
2. Hippo recommend me to use Apex+GHL dosing
On 6/10 I start adjust the water value I use APEX to control GHL dosing equipment and let KH dosing 20% higher then normal days. And the reason is simple.
A.If everything goes smooth the SPS will need more KH so 20% is for the addtion needed.
B.If the the tank water become bad value and make SPS stop growing, then I can use Apex power off the GHL dosing equipment.
About CA and MG I let it stay 500 and 1500 before I leave. I do beileve the higher or lower value on CA and MG will not make damage on SPS in these days. And my dosing still stay as days demand qty.
3. NOK's invention KH monitor
It is really a "The Holy Grail" for SPS keepers.
Without it I do believe I can not keep my reef tank as current.
For saving the "solution" I set up it auto test in every 6 hrs. In past two months I monitor the KH value every days. From 6/29 the monitor shows 7.20( Hanna 7.4 ) to 7/30 the monitor shows 7.96 (Hanna 8.01) and when I back on 8/30 the monitor shows 7.52(Hanna 7.64), it is almost let feel the GOD stay with my tank all the time.
4.Shih spent two years to ask me use the sand bed
Indeed after put the sand bed I really feel the tank become stabler. But it also course other problem in past two months. And you can see it from the SPS color.
5.Shih asks me add Remote Surveillance system
Of course it is very important when you abroad. It can let you feel comfortable when you need to see your tank....

I can use a frag or two as well.
If you have a trip to Taiwan you can just let us know but how to carry it back you need to have a plan.
