I almost bought one of these, sure is a beauty.

So this is after putting 28 drops of Ammonium chloride in the tank on Sunday..... Kinda surprised how fast it went, I just put another 28 drops in now and will test it tomorrow to see if I can detect any ammonia

With the tank sill cycling I decided I would go ahead and set up my dosing pump. I plan to start the pump (4 channels) with NoPOX, Calcium, and Alk. I will leave the last channel open for the future. Surprisingly only one pump was off when I calibrated it. I plan to mount the dosing pump above the top off resavoir And hang of bags below it.

Update: the cycle is going very well, Ammonia is undetectable within 12 hours of being 2ppm and my skimmer is pulling out some nice light tea skimmate with only the ammonia dosing. I plan to order my love rock soon

The 15lbs of KP Aquatics Live rock is in! I found a few dead pistol shrimp and what looked like a Euclid worm at the bottom of the bag, but the rock looks great! I still need to get my scape figured out and possibly break a few rocks in half.

I plan to ship out my radion today, so hopefully I will get my new light in soon

Is this crab a bad actor? Should he go in the sump?

I rearranged the rocks for better coral placement and cemented them together with NYOS cement (it has a very steep learning curve). I am fairly happy with the scape now.

Lastly I went ahead and placed my first divers den order!!

Nanobox Duo came in today, fairly pleased with the light

 

[WTyson]

Really liking the light, the colors are great. I noticed I have some type of hitchhiker anemone (looks like a corkscrew), as well as some sort of sps.

Good looking rock and sand, very natural.

Really neat rock....

Really neat rock....

....and scape! Looks like you got some nice pieces of rock, with lots of life.

Finally got my male Bandtail Waspfish and my pair of Radial Filefish in today. After a 4 hour praziquintal bath (some flukes fell off), they are in the tank.

The color of the Waspfish is 1000 times better than what was pictures on divers den. Hopefully they will have a female up soon

Well it looks like I may have a bad hitchhiker ....

Hopefully the disappearance of my Waspfish isn't because of this ....


And the filefish are looking great

I just realized I have some sort of a black crab in the tank that I never purchased, surprisingly I'm missing my smaller clown fish!
Tried setting up a trap but somehow he doesn't want to go all the way in
