Alec's 40gal breeder chronicles!

Lol my thoughts exactly. But thank you! It's not what I imagined it would be in my head, but I suppose that was before I got bit by the sps bug haha.

 

A couple new adds I bought from a guy in my area

Eco Gorg

ORA Marshall islands Bottlebrush

 

A recent FTS for y'all

Hello one and all. It's been awhile so I figured I should do an update! All is well on the home front. I was having some issues with cyano on my sand and a few spots of the rock work for awhile, but I've finally started to get control of it here in the passed week or so. Other than that, my red planet has been acting up for about 2 months now. Call it STN or whatever.. But it finally seems to be coming back around. I lost a few nice branches, which is a bummer, but I'm confident I can get it back looking good again. I was starting to see some lack of coloration on a few of my sps.. Namely my spongodes, red planet, and I lost a small acro frag. I don't test ever anymore to be completely honest, one of my buddies "borrowed" my test kits awhile back for his new tank haha. However I bought some Seachem advantage reef calcium powder and started dosing that every few days. I haven't done a thing different other than that and everything is looking noticeably better.. So it seems like it'll do the trick. I bought a bottle of Seachem reef fuel the other day as well. It's an amino acid blend I've done some reading on. I dosed for the first time the other day, I'll have to let y'all know if I see any differences. Anyways here's a few iPhone shots.

 

Well you silly silly goose.

With all those stony corals no way you could maintain a decent ALk without dosing, there is obviously a ton of coral building going on.

Sorry to hear about the RP, it will come back around.

Your LPS look stunning as always.

Nice update.

 

tank looks awesome!
