week 1 update:

Not to much has changed yet but I did change up some of the filter media. I removed the bag of chemi pure elite that was in the sump and swapped it for 150ml of seachem matrix carbon. I was advised that the chemi pure elite and it's gfo content wasn't necessary when running prodibio because the bacteria in biodigest will take care of the phosphate in the tank. At present the tank parameters are as follows.

1025sg
ALK 10dkh
411 cal
1290 mag
nitrate 8ppm
phosphate still undetectable.

the Corals haven't changed to much yet but my orange monti cap has started to really color up from a pale orange to a deeper richer orange.

well the first two weeks are up and I have done another 7 gallon water change and added my scheduled doses of Biodigest, Biopetim, Iodi+,stronti+.
I have also increased the photo period from 8hrs to 10hrs. Corals and fish appear to be doing well. I've snapped some more photos with some better color balance that give a better indicator of the colors in the tank.
