  2. Baby is 1 Month Old

    My tank has been officially set up for one month now. Things are starting to settle down now. I have seen a lot of stringy brown algae and I had about three days of Diatoms. I have been cleaning the skimmer cup daily for the most part. I have added 5 frags and 5 Pajama cardinals. There is not a lot to see as the tank is huge and the livestock is minimal at this point. Regardless, i wanted to document and share. The fish are all staying Primarily on one end of the tank, I am not sure how to ...

    I took down Tibet's 180g growout tank and rehomed my fish. I had to take back a tang and urchin so I took a friend's old 90g (man this thing really gets around), and set it up.



    I set up the RKE on the 90, and am waiting for the new SL2 module to be released. I'm 98% sure there is something wrong with the calibration of my pH probe. ...
