Full harvest from ATS after running for about 3 months.

Currently my tank is facing low po4 issue but has been resolved hopefully.

My guess is the GAC that I put which absorb it. Have removed it and now still monitoring.

Very neat setup! Looking forward to your updates. I also lost a few fishes when I started out. Now each time I wait at least 1 month before adding new fish.

But the fishes won't wait for you to buy them when you can.
I like wrasses and have a few of them in my tank.

After reading Leon thread on the maintenance of the UV, I decided to dismantle mine to wash and see. To my shocking, the quartz tube is full of dried salt. I remember once I forget to turn on the pump for 1 day after water change. That might be the reason - overheating.

Before:



After:



It might affect the performance of the UV if not properly maintained.

I recently bought 4 new blue eye Anthias and 1 of them turning to female! That’s fast, only 2 weeks in tank.

NO3 - 1 (nyos)
KH - 8.9 (hanna)
CA - 425 (nyos)
MG - 1260 (nyos)

Nice and clean setup! Camping for updates!

One useful tip shared by Leon..

Add a egg crate inside the Clarisea.. helps to straighten the fleece and reduce overlap / jam issue..

I really envy how clean your sump is.

Haha.. the amount of dirt in the slump is proportional to the age of the tank..
