    Your pocillipora is my fav. Saw some in person with wicked fluorescent polyps. Will need to read up on these and see if I can get some.

    Thanks for the kind words.
    My maintenance is kind of like 'shooting form the hip', or 'winging it'.
    I'd be glad to answer any questions you might have, here, or if you don't mind PM'ing also.

    I don't have any controllers- not yet anyways.

    My set up is really very simple, and largely DIY stuff.
    My DIY sump only has a skimmer, and a HUGE amount of Cheato, that's it.
    Well, it does have a simple heater, DIY grounding probe, and a DIY reactor with Phosguard in it.
    I do manually, randomly, dose Pickling Lime=Kalwasser. I rarely test params. I randomly do WC's- about 10-20%- sometimes every 3 months, other times, like the last 2 weeks I did 3 WC'.s- a 10, 10, and 5%ish.

    I'm usually fairly organized, but my system maintenance has no real schedule- I'm embarrassed to say
