Cleaning Day!
Monday is water change day. I changed 12 gallons from the sump this time to clean out the accumulated crud in there. Several hours later the tests are as follows:
PH:8.03 (7.92-8.13)
Temp: 77.1-77.9
Alk: 9dKH
Calc:410
Mag:1300
NH4:0
NO2:.05 (I think I need a new test kit)
NO3:1ppm
supplements:
two part Alk/Calc. 1.5 cup solution of each/day
Dosing 1ml vodka/day
The alk/calc supplement I recently started seems to work well. The vodka method of nitrate reduction seems to also be working.
Now, a few more pics for you:
Blastomussa wellsi 
Sabellastarte magnifica (feather duster worm) 
Montipora sp. 
Cryptocentrus leptocephalus (pink spot goby) 
Various Zooanthids and Palythoas 
Thanks for lookin' !
