A quick, and most likely final update for this system.
The tank is coming down permanently on the 23rd, and hopefully will be going to a new home soon.
This tank served me spectacularly until two things happened:
1) people started selling pretty frags, and my eyes officially became too big for my tank!
2) I started going away every weekend, and slacked on water changes. I went from 2 changes a week to one every two weeks.
Right now the tank is way too full as you can see here:
The green hair algae has come back, and for a month or two there it was about 90% gone from the tank.
On the positive side though the colors are returning to a lot of my frags that were bleached out by the Phosban.
I am also seeing good polyp extension again, almost back to the point the tank was in say August.
A final actinic shot from just after actinics on.
So to end this thread, and its been a good thread, this tank marked my first official nano tank. I think I can deem it a semi-success, things grew, and they lived.
Starting on the 24th, everything will be living
here. Here is a 28g long DIY nano running on a calfo manifold.
