Re: 90 Gallon Starphire Start-up

Another update....

I hit a new (to me) local LFS last week...and while I went in looking for fish they didn't have much to choose from. So I ended up going home with a nice red/orange Blastomussa and a beautiful Elegance Coral. I know I had read about them before picking up this specimen, but I hadn't really let it soak in since I didn't have one or hadn't seen on for sale. Anyways, to make I long story short, I have one now and have re-read many discussions on theses. My fingers are crossed! It seems this LFS has had very good luck with their Elegance's in the past so I hope I do to!

Re: 90 Gallon Starphire Start-up

Did you have any hair algae before dosing with ProBio? A local reef club member here swears by that stuff and claims it single handedly cleaned his 120g tank from a NASTY HA infestation. Just wondering if you saw anything like that in your tank....

I didn't have any hair algae, but significant algae growth on my glass and was cleaning it several times a day. It is also cleared up the diatoms from my sandbed. Swiisguard has used it will success as well.

Re: 90 Gallon Starphire Start-up

I picked up a little Yellow Tang over the weekend as well. I love the color it adds to the tank.

Ha ha I had more money (the banks) when I was in college than I do now! Anyway this was still bought with the banks money (visa)!!!

Tank was 750 cnd drilled with overflows. I love it though, it was worth every penny.

Cheers,

Yes, one more week then my 3rd dose of BioClean. Time flies when you're having fun (read: spending money and enjoying on your reef!)

I would touch base with you before I add the Reef Booster.

Thanks

Re: 90 Gallon Starphire Start-up

My frist crack at some "marco" type shots and a little photoshop. I am only using my 3.2MP so they are still not that great, but a start.
