Wow, usualy I have to shove my photos down others throats... okay, but remember, ya all asked for it...lol
This is the main tank, although I need to update it when I am done, Did just a little rearranging, not much, but a little, have also been squeezing in more inverts also. I plan to plant the sandbed with paddleweed once again, My sandbed is so active that any sea grasses get uprooted every day and I get sick of replanting them. But without such things, the tank doesn't look right to me.
Yeah, I know, how can I cram anymore in?...lol
The Refugium
Nothing allowed but algae / sea grasses and as many "nice" hitch hikers as possible, I also dose the entire system with up to 2 litres of phytoplankton every 24 hours to encourage as much other life (non-corals) as possible, in the hopes that they will in turn feed the corals. Last night, on a whim, I poured 5 litres of phyto into the system at one shot, turned the entire system green, kind of spooky at first, but was surprised, that with no filtration to speak of, the water was crystal clear again within the hour. Somebodys got a full belly...lol
This montipora is going to be a weed, I swear I can notice almost daily growth.
