Iraf's 90g builld

Starting to get detectable nitrates so that made me happy, checked it about 4am today when the boy wouldn't go back to sleep

 

Well, never thought I'd be this excited to see an algae bloom but I HAVE DIOTEMS or however the heck it's spelled

 

Picked up a Koralia 4 today to add some flow, have 10 more mangroves and some other macros coming from reefcleaners this week

 

Fuge now has 4 ulva, 15 red mangroves, 3 bundles of chaeto and some other macros that I cant remember the names of

Also added some tiny tiny little cerith snails and some big honking turbos to the DT, as well as a small emerald crab and a few small blue leg hermits

 

Man Iraf I don't know what the 4 ulva are but when I glanced at that I thought it said something medically naughty. I was thinking HUH, didn't know those were available in the hobby.

Ok I'm done now.

Tank seems to be coming along nicely. How about some pictures. I'll take some tonight as well and we'll let Luna sort them out.

 

haha, ulva is a sea lettuce, I'm growing it out as food for my tangs once it gets a bit bigger it's going to be moved to the display tank as fresh food for them to graze on

I'll get some pics done sometime right now it's nasty looking cause of the algae bloom

 

Are you getting a brown or green algae bloom? I got both but the brown went away and I'm left with the green. Otty sold me his powder blue tang last Friday and with the Naso I already had they're getting it in check pretty quickly.

 

just brown mainly, there was a tiny bit of green but the hermits went straight to it when they were added, i have a flame fin tomini tang and scopas on hold at the LFS but I still have like .25 ammonia as of this AM so their not goin in yet

 

Green Gracilaria is the other macro I got

 

Since I'm catching flak here is some pics
Also I just checked params, 0 ammonia, 0 NO2, 0 NO3
