    Thanks matt.

    My hardwares are as follows.
    72g bowfront, swc 130 skimmer (I go back and forth between reef octopus and this one), 9w uv, ozone, 2 jebao wp40s, rapid led onyx fixtures, 2 tlf reactors, one for gfo and one for carbon and then everything held together by apex.

    That is some nice hardware. I use UV as well for a bit of algae control on my shallow tank. How has your experience been with ozone? I don't see much use of that on the hobby level. Plenty in public aquariums though.

    Thank you ozone is really good for what I want. It does pull crazy amount of extra goo,(black) keeps water crystal clear and helps to combat free floating parasites. I like it alot.





    Yea, I was on the same boat until spa sized ozone was given to me. Lol

    Scored some nice zoanthid colonies for 10 bucks a pop. (No they are not some no name ones lol) will post pics later.

    Onyx, eh? How do you like that fixture? I've had my eye on that one for some time since there is a controller version. Nice mixed reef, btw. That's not easy to do.

    I love it actually. Full spectrum plus crees made hugr difference from me. I also love the fact that these are powered by 1000 milli amp drivers not 700.
