Day 64.
Water parameters measured today:
No3: <1 ppm
Po4: 0.050 - 0.010 ppm
kH: 8.6dKh
Ca: 450ppm
Mg: 1200ppm
Potassium 380ppm
Tank is 2 months old and 4 weeks into the fallow period, and pods are exploding in astronomical numbers because of it! i also fed Red Sea AB+ and reef roids daily for the past 1 weeks along with 2x frozen mysis feeding for my LPS to see how well NoPox reduces Po4.
As you can see, No3 remains below 1ppm while po4 had steadily rised to 0.01ppm, seems like i NoPox alone will not reduce much po4. I had placed some AF Phosphate minus in a bag in my overflow chamber.
Managed to squeeze out some space in my room for a 28L QT tank, its smaller than what i want as a QT but i have to make do for now. Got a pair of Snowflake clown and a YT couple days ago. They will go through a full 30 days QT with cupramine + Prazi treatment before going into my main tank.
The clowns are really pretty!
Got myself a RBTA a week ago, interestingly, it was an 'offspring' of the RBTA i used to sell years ago. Thanks to a reefer bro here who sold it to me!
Some new LPS
very luminous green acan.
Red goniopora

Here's some comparison shot of the SPS growth in a span of 2 weeks. Top being 2 weeks ago, bottom is taken today. Getting pretty good growth now with a alk consumption of 0.3dkh daily. I also fragged some of the SPS hoping to induce braching growth in them.
Sky blue staghorn
Miyaigi Tort
Red Millie
Red planet millie
Cookie Monster acropora
Yongei
Rainbow stag
I will end this post with an update of my UAS. There's better growth after switching to a 12 hours reverse light cycle. But probably will take some time to get it really going espcially when i have no fish now.
Thanks for viewing!
