Today's Testings:

SG = 1.026
pH = 8.1
Mag = 1360
Alk = 9
Cal = 400
Nitrate = 15
Phos = < 0.25

Not bad. I dosed up the Magnesium and Calcium a bit, but everything else looked pretty in line.

No tank updates to speak of except for a suicidal Valentini Pufferfish. I came home from work the other day and found his dried up corpse on the carpet behind the stand. Really bummed me out, and the price paid for not having a covered tank.

Macro harvest time again. The greens shot up more this round, but then the Dragon's Breath & Bryothamnion took over:

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

This is one of the coolest tanks I have seen. I am going to purchase a marine land 65g corner flow as well very soon. Yay

I really like the aquarium. It's just right for me because the tank is manageable; water changes aren't such a chore; and it's big enough to utilize most aspects of the hobby. The Marineland Cornerflow comes with a standard durso pipe set-up, but you can turn it into a Herbie style easy enough if you run the return over the back of the tank. I have just used the dursos that it came with because, well...they work, and I have had no negative issues with them. The aquarium is quality built, albeit basic, but it suits my purposes and budget. :bigeyes:
