Master Reefer (8/13)

  1. Clearview lid added. Happy with how it turned out.
  2. Im pretty sure the owner before me cooked it pretty good. The nyos is a beast for sure but the best part is how quiet they are.
  3. Sorry. It was handling a low amount of ozone dosed directly into it. The skimmer is an absolute beast and handles the bioload really well.
  4. Few things have happened over the past month. I have switched over to using an Avast ozone reactor because even though the Nyos skimmer says it can handle a low amount. The skimmer ended up being destroyed so it was replaced with another 220. I wanted to see if I could fit the 300 but sadly it was not in the cards. All the fish are doing great and I really attribute that to the plank feeder. It is a complete game changer. The Anthias are thriving and out of the 10 females I started with, I now have 2 males and the remaining 8 females. They have split the tank in half with a male each claiming a side. It does seem that one male is still dominant over the other and the females all have their pecking order as well. I bit the bullet and ordered a clear view lid because my homemade screen did not keep the pintail in and I lost it one night to a jump. The ACR is back online after a few small repairs but seems to be running great. Once again, long term we will see. Last change is the gold spot rabbit has to go. He is getting the living crap beat out of him by my majestic even though he is a good 5 times the body mass.
  5. I absolutely love it. Can’t wait to see these two grow in your tank!
  6. Hahaha. Well worth the risk and everything looks great!
  7. The kiddo may learn to snorkel in there haha
  8. Thanks! Their last batch is amazing. They had some Bartletts and I can’t remember the last time I saw some locally. There are so many amazing tanks on this forum and I just try to take as much info and inspiration in as I can from everyone
  9. So this weekend I added three more Bimacs and a pintail wrasse from reef escape. The additional three bimacs have blended into the harem well and mellowed things out. The new additions are smaller than the others so that has helped a lot. The largest female looks be to changing to male at this point. The pintail went into hiding after being released but I caught it being a little more adventurous today. Im looking forward to seeing it cruise around the tank.
  10. I saw that there the other week and took a hard look at it. Nice fish and will look great in there!
  11. That is good to know. I will add that to my flow for sure. I am going to be adding in some of the TDO pellets to the mix and take my other feeder offline completely
  12. So I opted to get the plank mounted on the rim and made a temporary modification to the lid to test everything out. It is a game changer. I have it dumping just above my vortech to try and broadcast the food as much as possible. So far so good. I have it turning on for a minute six times throughout the day.
