Bought a collection of wrasses for the tank. Been waiting for a year to add new fish so this is exciting!

I'm trying out some new salt, Reefer's Best, as I'm getting tired of manually bumping Ca and Mg all the time. I don't mind Coralife Marine and all, but I want to look around and see what else is out there.

I'm having some phosphate problems which I'm attributing to needing to replace my RO/DI media. A 150g water change ended up bumping my phosphates up by 0.12ppm!

I'm preparing to tear down about 1/3 of my aquascaping in the near future; my fish have grown so much that they need new hiding places.

One of my anthias has turned!






I need to go clean my glass and make up their evening meal.

Nice. I'm looking at a carpenter wrasse as well. I'll have to look up Noako. I've not heard of that one. Did you get them locally or order them? I would be interested in your review of reefers best. If it's all that and a bag of chips I may try it but it's pricey. I know someone who swears by it but it never hurts to have a second opinion.

Looking awesome! Radion looks soooo much better than Kessil.

Regarding the PO4...did you know that DI resin loses it's ability to attract ions once it has become "full" and will suddenly start to release ions? So you can get a big flush of all the nasties the DI resin removes like ammonia, phosphate, silicate, etc.
