I recently upgraded to a 150g system from a 60 gallon. Due to vacation coming up, and not being able to have 2 systems running, i cycled for 2 weeks using Dr. Tim's One and Only. I have a little over 150 pounds of live rock in the display and sump and after Ammonia a Nitrite hit 0 i started moving my fish and corals over to the tank.
2 days ago i moved a 2 little fishes phosban reactor with rowaphos over and teed it off a dedicated pump also connected to a bio pellet reactor. The next day everything was closed and hasn't opened up much since.
Stock: 2 clowns, blenny, goby, cardinal, and yellow coris wrasse
Corals are 2 duncans (all closed up) a cristata (all tentacles shriveled and receding) A couple colonies of zoas and palys (open but skirt is projected out forming a cone shape) and some mushrooms that are twisted up, GSP closed up.
Temp is running high 77s to love 80s Ph is 8.14 right now and i dose with kalkwasser in the ATO. Ammonia, and nitrite are 0 nitrate is somewhere in the 5 to 10 range. Phosphate is around .05.
I run 2 AI hydras and after everything closed up i put that into acclimation mode (still not sure if my setting are good for everything)
All fish seem healthy and are eating. I have since turned off circulation to the phosban reactor but don't know if that was the problem. Any ideas?
