Just saw Parker’s reef video where he explains his sump lighting. He’s using some sort of Phillips Hue Sensor Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A day or two after laying I usually see them being eaten by isopods and another day after that they are gone :( More eggs were layer last night. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Here’s the current state of the low boy. I’ll post a broader view so you can see the lights, sump, and equipment later. You can view the tank live at... www.twitch.tv/thetwitchtank Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There is apparently another blue tang clan channel, that now has one subscriber, Me. Haha Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

First subscriber! If your username is BlueTangClan. Edit: Found your channel. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It’s like worst case scenario suddenly became best case scenario. Hahaha. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sometimes the tentacles get twisted and drop off...like how that guy spins that chicken around in Babel and pops the head off. I’ve seen it happen on my hammer before. Nem looks healthy in the pics. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

...or add an air stone to the sump? I also don’t use kalk in ATO. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m not familiar with this system, but could it be hooked up incorrectly? My water in Glen Burnie is 400TDS I think. I can tell you that if my water was 25 TDS I wouldn’t even be using an RODI. ** this is my unpopular opinion only ** [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Saw your FB post and thought it must have been temp since I didn’t see it addressed. Edit: But in your post above its normal. Do you have anemones in the tank? I had a RBTA wipe out my green pocillopora colony to a bone white skeleton overnight last week. I wonder if one instance of RTN caused by something like an anemone sting could snowball out of control. Hypothesis that stung coral flesh turns into infection and then RTN throughout the tank.

Here’s the link. They’ve been doing live chats all week, taking viewers through the evolutions in reef keeping over the last 16 years. This is the one on rock. NSA is in last 30 mins (about 1hr 25min in). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Did you watch the BRS rock video earlier this week? They went over some NSA stuff at the end. I like the concept of building an NSA of hollow caves that from the front still looks like solid rock. They touched on it in regards to how the scape will look when the lights are on and the tank is stocked. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks for the info! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Have any of the sea horses survived? I have a 12 month established low flow Macroalgae tank with no filtration, a small 3gpm pump, and an air stone. I wonder if they would do well in there. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You can now watch this tank live 24/7 on twitch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Current status of the lowboy. Transferring my clown over tomorrow and the anemones once my nem guards arrive. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wow. Yea that is amazing! Would we call it a mistake? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What are all of the liter bottles in the sump? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I want one of these. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Which you can rent for like $5 (less security deposit) from WAMAS! [emoji4] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wow beautiful aquarium. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Thanks. I’ve sought and received wise advice from him before. I have ceramic media and rocks from my other aquariums in the sump so hopefully the bacteria starts populating quickly. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think BRS has “investigated” it. I know I’ve seen a video not long ago but clearly I forget the outcome! I’m patient. I’m enjoying the setup and slowly adding the dosing equipment, temperature control, etc. that I will inevitably need. Thanks for following along! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
