    Well this morning my tank was cloudy, either dust off the new rock or a wicked bacteria bloom. I'm hoping its the bloom lol.

    Well I emptied my phosban reactor and put carbon in it and ive noticed the yellow isn't so bad and the foam is subsiding. Also picked up a 1050 koralia and put it and another one I had in the tank today.

    Yellow is gone after running carbon, still no light. I purchased a lionfish, its cool, when its out lol. Other than that everything is fine. Hopefully get the glass cut for the tops soon so I can get a wrasse or an eel. Haven't really spent any money on the tank lately. Have to buy Christmas presents...
