ill post a pic in a bit but im as simple as it gets.
90g tank 90g sump asm skimmer mh/t5/led combo tlf reactor for gfo tap water for top up weekly water changes of 20g every sunday with IO 45g fuge with halimeda,red macro,dragon macro(?),mangroves,cheato,dsb recently added a ATS i have absolutely no algae in the display i run a mixed reef but mostly lps i am getting the best growth ive ever had with a mixed reef, my sand is white, my glass is algae free and my rocks are sptless. im getting huge pod growth and lots of growth from my macro. i stopped testing for phosphate because im running gfo so im not gonna do anymore than that regardless of what the tests say. i have high nitrates( -40ppm) but my corals dont seem to mind. i have a low bio load of less than a dozen small fish and dont plan on getting anymore anytime soon. if the algae scrubber does not work i may consider carbon dosing but right now its a last resort method as the ATS seems like its gonna do what its supposed to ![]() ill post a pic or vid later ![]() oh and i tell everyone i help start new tanks that simple has success and is the better way to go with a new tank, add the bells and whistles after the tank gets loaded with fish and corals.
