Thanks! The Achilles completed tank transfer and was added to the tank on 2/3/15. He is amazing, definitely the king of the tank. I run crypto free and I have a very rigid QT process to make sure I can keep my fish happy and healthy.

The rocks are secured with silicone actually.

Awesome on how you have both the Achilles and the Chevron tangs. Did you experience any problems with introducing them? any fighting?

The Achilles was not a fan of the bigger Chevron for a solid 3 days. But after heavy feedings the aggression went away and the 3 tangs (Chevron, Achilles, and Sailfin) are all happy and mostly hang together. I plan to add a Blonde naso at some point and I will take more caution and use an in tank acclimation box. The Naso will be larger (I hope) so that should also help. I have an order in for a pair of yellow fin wrasses and a 2nd royal gramma.

Nice! I'm waiting on the battery backup. I've got it hooked up to a UPS right now but that wont last nearly as long as what they'll provide.
 
Got it all hooked up last night and the controller is awesome!!! It does a great job with the pulse and ramps!

 
Update.
I am currently dosing 1.9oz of BRS ALK solution and 3.4oz of BRS Ca solution and my SPS seems to really be taking off.

The big 3 are as follows.
ALK 7.8
Ca 450
Mag 1350

Miyagi Tort on 7/7


Now on 9/7
 
Checked the aquarium the other night and my 12+ inch durasa started spawning.

Not the easiest thing to see, but about every 2 minutes the clam would close and fill my tank full of a nice white cloud....

A few years back when I had my 58 I was changing rocks around and 3 of my 4 clams spawned and filled my poor tank full of the most disgusting goo....

Thanks Jason. It happened again the other night as well. My two coris wrasses spawned every few weeks like clockwork.
 
Update.
Tank is growing well and coraline algae is popping up everywhere. I have been dosing 3.4 oz of calcium and 1.9 oz of BRS 2 part daily via dosing pumps for several months now. Water parameters are consistent at the following
Alk 8.1
Ca 450
Mag 1350

I have a new ruby headed fairy wrasse that will be coming out of TT this week.

Now to the pics.
