I used regular amount of gfo and started with half dose of nopox.
1.5 cups of gfo and 5ml nopox.
After the first 3 days i went to full dose 10ml nopox. For the first couple of weeks I was changing gfo every week.
I havnt ran any gfo for the last week now. Since algae is mostly gone. I dont want to strip water of all nutrients. Still dosing nopox.


I highly recomend you do your own research on using nopox because it can go bad like anything else. Cyano outbreak, bacteria blooms and getting nutrients too low too quick for corals

i got tired of the basic "hc gfo and waterchange" and iv been extremly happy with it so far.

Theres alot of threads on RC and clay-boa i recomend you check them out.

Thanks for the info and tips.

Im at the surface of understanding NoPox. I do plan to research over the next few weeks before jumping in head first

What is your light schedule and how tall is your tank?

I am going to add a pair of T5 retro kits and adding 1 blue plus and 1 purple (maybe 2 shades of blues) so I can use less whites throughout the day.
Plus I enjoy the blue look better:beer:

Lol same i wasnt aware of that issue till now.

Currently have a 90g and 37g both running same light intensity and schedule but different size tanks. One is 24" other is 18" i think. Im combining them into a 72x18x24 135g within next month or so. Then ill attach both light fixture together somehow over the same tank.

Ill post the %s and time dont remeber exactly but on at 11am off by 10 pm. Less white then blue the whole time.

Nice upgrade!

Currently my light starts at 7am at a low % to around 11am. Then it ramps up to around 45% W/70%Blue around 2pm.
2-6pm 45%W/70%B
6pm-8pm 35%W/60%B
8-10pm 1%W/20%B

Something around this.

So far on my 22" tall 45gl, my acans, torches, dendro, euphilias (placed near the top), lepto, blastos (5 different species) and a few other LPS like the settings. I had 5 SPS frags and Im down to 2 pcs. Just lost 2 over the weekend. Slowly lost color then went bleach white. Also lost a super tiny plate coral that never did well since adding him.
