The weekly test kit which i am using which I only test for ca, KH, mg , N03 and phosphate.

Another observation after using Nulagi for a few week, without adding any additional coral the weekly uptake of ca,mg and KH actually increase but i see better PE on my SPS which i feel is due to the coral growing faster with the improved water quality.

Just to share that we can actually enhance the nutrition value of normal pallet food using vit C or maybe even mixing with fish medicine to become food for disease treatment.

 

Simply mix the crystalline Vit c powder to dry pallet food and give it a " Good shake " !!

After giving it a good shake , you can actually see that the Vit C powder has been absorb into the pallets.

Just finish setting up the AI Director today, and was really impress how the technology in the aquarium trade has evolve today with the use of internet. I could still remember it was only like 2 year ago that my first controllable LED at that time was the latest technology in the market .

Basically, the AI director came only with a power cord, and a wireless adaptor.

Below is some of the screen shot of the director setup page when you login to the personal myaquaillution page.

Straight away when i login, it will prompt you to update the firmware for your director or your light wirelessly .

The setting up page for the different light setting throughout the day. With the AI Director, if you have different model of AI lighting like me, you will be able to set up different setting for each model of AI which the normal controller is unable to do so.

The weather effect setting page for lighting, cloud and Lunar which you can draw data of the local weather from the internet.

It take some try and error to catch the ideal setting especially for the tank espeically for SPS corals, as if you are not careful enough you might bleach the corals. After a few try and research on the internet which i got some data from, I adjust it to my tank height and coral placement. Never under estimated the power and intensity of LEDs nowsaday, as it can easily beat MH .

White : 65 %

Blue : 80 %

RB: 80%

DB : 80 %

Red: 30 %

Green : 30%

Violet : 30 %

UV : 20 %

Light is abut 18" above water level, and tank height is 18" . Ramp time 4 hour ( 11.30 - 3.30 pm )

We really have to be careful with the White, violet and UV setting not to ramp it too high as it can easily bleach your coral. I also discover that if the Red and Green setting was set too high, there is a problem with algae growth on the rock.

Guess what, it was raining yesterday afternoon and due to the regional setting that draw the local weather on the internet, my tank was having a thunder storm as well of course without the rain water but the thunder and cloud effect look really cool .

That's cool! To draw from the regional weather, radion/ESL doesn't have that I think.
