Re: Lynn and Frank's saltwater adventure.

And now the unveiling of my new euphies.
They are both a lot more beautiful that the pics show.
The first is the purple heart hammer which is really a gorgeous purple and is a nice size scrolling or wall hammer. (Bought from Zoanuts who is wonderful. 2nd purchase and 2nd great experience.)


Then there is my first every auction win. I've tried bidding for several gorgeous euphies at Aquatic Auction and finally won one. This is much brighter in person. I got a great deal on the auction and great service as well.

Nitrate (NO3) reduction is directly proportional to percentage of Water Change.
Allen's home-made formula...currentNO3-((%WC*.01)currentNO3)=finalNO3 (thanks Luukosian)
This means if you change 50% of your total water volume (That's EVERYTHING) you'll get a net reduction of (NO3) somewhere around 50%.

Ask me about how to increase your REEF budget without going without FOOD!!

Re: Lynn and Frank's saltwater adventure.

I'll try to get Frank to take some this weekend.
The purple hammer is incredible.
We did some major pruning last week so some of the softies look a bit funky from their newly healed wounds. Several of them dared to interfere with the light on my green wall hammer and we just can't have that.

GREAT idea (both Frank taking pics AND pruning).

I've tried my dangest to get one of those but I keep "Missing out" for one reason or another. So until I can get one I'll have to just enjoy yours via your pics from Mr. Broccoli

Re: Lynn and Frank's saltwater adventure.

Let's see what I can remember.
Solaris I-4 lights. (LED)
29g sump with ASM G4+ skimmer
29g fuge with DSB, LR and a bit of cheato
4 Koralia 3s on a Koralia wavemaker
Sorry, I don't know the return pump
ATO
That's about it.
Pretty simple really. Lots of water changes to compensate for my continual overfeeding.
Current inhabitants (While I am at it)
1 yellow eyed Kole tang
1 Red Corris Wrasse
1 6-line wrasse
1 mean Maroon clown
1 Engineer goby who is getting huge
4 Anthias (I'll lookup what kind in a sec)
2 Midas Blennies
1 RBTA
1 Urchin
snails and such
I think that is it for this tank.
I'll have to look when I get home and see what I forgot.

A look through a couple pages of the chronicle tells me that I never posted what type of Anthias, and I forgot my cucumber
