    And my most recent water test. A few levels are a little off but I'm already working on fixing them

    Set up my new auto top off by E-Fins a cheap and easy to install unit. Can't really complain because of the price

    Spent some time today organizing the stand. I have two power strips one strip has all the pumps and heater on it that way I can turn all of them off with one switch for water changes. The other power strip has the lights and controller on it. I tried to organize the cables as much as I could it's just a lot to fit into a very small stand. I also installed the controllers onto the door for easy viewing

    Got some more frags and did a water change yesterday. I ran another water test today and it seems like the water change has caused my calcium to go up but yet my magnesium went down which seems strange to me. Anyways I dosed some Mag today to get those levels back up. I'm also working on slowly bringing up my salinity thru daily top offs.

    Well update I went out of town to visit back home for winter break and I was gone for almost 3 weeks. Only thing keeping my tank alive was my ATO. Thankful the 3 weeks went off without a hitch. Some of the frags actually had some signs of growth on them. Calc and Alk were a little low but that's an easy fix. All in all I was very happy with the way everything worked while I was gone.

    I also picked up a new Lobo frag, some more zoas, and a really nice acan echinata frag.
