I've taken to using the speak-to-text as I can't hit the little buttons either, even if I turn it to landscape :smile:

Dude I can't talk to an inanimate object like a phone even Siri peeves me off I called her a "working girl" and she was rude enough to suggest a few local massage parlours. I may make many tops and the phone may mistake an auto correct.. But I refuse to talk to my phone lol

Well, I can't knock you for that :smile:
I'm just not built to type fast on a little screen

I can type the blazes on a desktop keyboard, but not on a smartphone

It's all good just proof you like to talk to yourself and I like to makes mistakes. Lol

Finally got my skimmer online and the carpet is almost dry from my waterchange fiasco and the wife didn't kick me out. So I cleaned the tank and took a fts

It looks bad that I'm the only one replying to your build, like I'm stalking you :smile: but it's just a coincidence
This is my first chance to hang out here in weeks and you have an update

Great looking FTS :wink:

Lol it's ok stalker is harsh thread groupie sounds better...lol yeah I have a few new additions but there has been a lot of frustrations recently. Sps browning out. I have come to terms that I have a brown thumb for sps.. Making it rain in my wife's daycare in the basement prepping for a waterchange ooops. Skimmer offline for 4 weeks and my sand sifter trying to bury my new 6" plate coral.

I have added a false Moorish idol brown powder tang from jorjef, sail-fin tang scooter blenny. Just about done with the stock list just awaiting a convict tang and I am done fish wise. Then Concentrate on coral more. And home photo skills. Oh yes lastly I need to change my halide color I'm finding things too blue these days

Brown SPS ?
If I may suggest ....
Either cut your feedings down, or bump your filtration up
Too much food, IMHO, is the cause of brown SPS

I wish this was my problem
I bleached all my SPS from lack of food :surprise:

I had major probs last winter with my SPS bleaching from lack of food
I doubled fish foods, added coral foods etc
Algae came on like a banshee, but the SPS are happy now
Just need to balance things ... find the tipping point between fish food and coral food to keep the critters happy and the algae down

I really only feed once a day pinch of flake and some mysis the main reason for it browning this time was the skimmer not coming back online due to treating for cyano. My hopes are that they color up again now that I am back skimming.
