So another cycle update. Nitrates are getting lower and lower every day. I'm starting to see some life!
Last night I changed all the bulbs to a more blue look. Keep in mind that all the previous shots of the tank were on dusk/dawn channels with only two blues and two pinks.
Heres the new bulb arrangement:
Front
KZ Superblue
WP Blue wave 460
WP Reef wave
WP Sun wave
WP Coral Wave
KZ New Gen
Back
It looks a lot less blue in person, but its almost identical to a 14K look. The couple fish I have in there look outragously colorful already.
Coraline is already starting to grow everywhere. This is on the bare bottom.
And my first little spirorbid worm!! Things are starting to look lively! Got little critters everywhere on the glass.
Skimmer pulling out sick black crap already... The smell is absolutely alarming.
NEXT: clean up crew to get working on the tiny bits of hair algae.
