Looking awesome Ryan, wondering about the sturdiness of Rodney's underwater camera so could you whack it hard against a rock a few times for me to see how it holds up please mate. I'm researching camera's and i'm sure Rodney won't mind............

That reddy purple acro you posted looks a pretty cool color mate, haven't seen anything quite like that before. :thumbsup:

Don't forget to let me know how the camera holds up mate :)

Ryan,

Spectacular job! Beautiful corals!

You probably have this posted elsewhere, but can you fill in the details on your current regimen?

Carbon? Phosphate remover? How frequent are your water changes? How do you maintain calcium and alkalinity? Do you use just the Zeo items you listed on pg 5: extra, b-bal, spur, and k? How often do you clean the skimmer? How often do you pump the zeo reactor? Anything else in your system like sponges etc?

Thanks a bunch,

Joe

Thanks Joe

I use TLF carbon approx 150ml in a FBF which I change every 4 weeks.
I only use zeovit for nutrient control with approx 1.5L in a Avast Vibe auto reactor which is shaken twice daily for 90 seconds. Cal and Alk are maintained via profilux dosing pump. Mag is added manually when required.

I do water changes every 7-10 days of 10gal using KZ reefers best salt, where I also clean the skimmer cup.

As for zeo supps I have most of the supps but no longer use them, or use them very occassionally eg if greens are lacking may add some iron. I feel most of the supps offer little to no benefit and are duplication of other supps. eg xtra and amminos, K bal and PIF etc. It is easy to get carried away and bu y all these bottles but the benefit is minimal if at all. So i now just use the bang for buck sups.

I cultivate sponge for my angels to eat, there are one or two zoos in there also.
