SRC Member shetland Posted December 12, 2016 Author SRC Member Share Posted December 12, 2016 Week One (will be conducting tests and updates on every Monday If possible) Below are the Equipment and Test Kits for the Basics first. The results are complied in excel. There are Ammonia, Nitrite and Nitrate, therefore the Cycling process has kickstarted. The above is the current water perimeters for My Expensive Hobby. Will post new updates along the way as well as weekly update on the tests and results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

divinesloth Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Hey you have got an awesome setup. I have a dormant 4x2x2 tank waiting to be revived. May I ask how is your Hailea 66A working for your tank? I cannot decide if I should repair my artica 1/4 or get a new Hailea HS90. How is your BM skimmer, I'm thinking of getting that or Skimz BN161. Please share your experience, thanks! Quote Why all the venom? Reefing is just a hobby, dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also diatoms are formed. Below is the water perimeter test i have done about 30 minutes ago.. still celebrating my birthday today haha. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member shetland Posted December 29, 2016 Author SRC Member Share Posted December 29, 2016 As of Christmas eve, i did a test on the water perimeter and it reveal 0 ammonia and 0 nitrite, however there seems to be diatoms growing. Thus i proceed to add in the CUC for my tank. Total added 21 new clean up crew members to the Main display Tank. 9 Trochus Snail 6 Astrea Turbo Snail (4 in Main Display tank and 2 in refugium sump) 4 Nassarius Snail 2 Cleaner Shrimp Acclimate them using the drip method and so far for the past 5 days..they are doing well and moving around in the tank. Below is the pic of my two cleaner shrimp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
