Just a question about your nighttime water column saturation method. You haven't ever had any oxygenation problems with the corals sliming/reduction of flow/no skimmer combination? Just wondering as I accidentally had my skimmer and return pump off overnight once and lost my bellus angel from what I assumed to be low oxygen. Could be that they're just overly sensitive as I've heard angelfish can be. I'm intrigued to try your method but it kind of scares the bejeezus out of me and I'd likely have the pumps come on after only an hour or two.

Anyway, I'd like to hear your thoughts on this
No losses thus far, I agree though if your hesitant to do it start really slow.

That being said all of the tanks I have done this with have had a fair amount of surface area so it has never really been a problem. Make sure you keep your return pump on though, don't want a temperature drop. It would be nice to get an O2 probe running and take some measurements, I might pick one up the next time I'm at the LFS.

Thanks again for all the shout outs everyone !

Congrats Levi! I've always loved the idea of a Zoa dominated tank, and the size of yours too is really great. Love the rainbow!

Hopefully before I get you to build my light hanging rail . 23rd is my last exam then I'm off to Jamaica for 10 days, you should stop by for a frag swap after that.

Thanks Mindy! I'm excited to see how your 50g turns out, should be a little easier to deal pest algae and keep everything stable for the little guys.
