Default Great thread!!!

WOW Josie...nice job all the way, great updates and with all the equipment specs too! That is very helpful for others to see. Love your devotion to keepin up the posts with ample pictures. That brain is soooo GEORGEOUS! The bio pellets probably help alot, reducing nitrates-which make colors drab and reducing phosphate-which inhibits calcification, you will probably notice a surge of SPS growth too. Great job, keep up the fantastic work. Love to hear reefers out there that are totally comitted to their tanks like you are. Looking forward to the next round of updates. Very inspiring!!!
Cheers Ronnie

2 months since the skimmer is in action!

We really think it's working great! I think this old technology is quit "soft" on the water... compare to using a needle wheel or other pomp that are hard on water...

our hait algae problems seems to end, the algae is dying and disolving!

The polyps extension is amazing!
