    Tanks looking outstanding Steve. Great new adds too.

    Hey, on a side note, what do you think of the Bubble Magus doser? I was looking into one of these. Seems like a better deal than the litermeters, especially if you want multiple pumps, but I haven't found as much info on them,

    You are correct on the wrasse ID Steve; congrats on the addition. That species is known to sometimes be one of the more aggressive of the Cirrhilabrus, so you may have to watch if he "plays nice" with the other wrasses.

    I'm very happy with my Bubble Magus doser. It's been very trouble free and quite easy to use. It's also made my tank life much better, and the tank is seeming to like the new found stability. I was dosing a considerable amount twice daily before.

    Thank you very much MSA Corals

    if it colors up a bit and continues to grow, Ill put it down to experience LOL

    Thanks m2434

    the Bubble Magus doser is probably one of the best investments I have made for that tank over last 20 months
    not had a problem with it
    its reliable in terms of timings
    and I ran it for 3 days into a jug in a bucket to check dosing quantities prior to running it on tank
    the more you add, the more accurate it is
    if you try and break 100 mils down into 8 doses you can get between 10 and 15 mils per dose, depending how much air formed at end of tube between doses
    if you break 100 mils down into 4 doses - you get between 22 - 26 mils for the same reason

    but as far as parameters go - they have been really steady thus far

    Thanks Evolved, hopefully the fact that the other 2 have been resident for a few months will offset the aggression of the new guy in the tank

    thank you 1 babelove

    it is a fine coral IMO
