Yeppers. I am going to make a kalk paste and apply it on the left over monitpora that's encrusted to the rock. Any hints or tricks?

If its left in tank then the options are limited to wrasses or peppermints and both are hit or miss

If your home often you can try to suck as many off as possible but there often many more than what you see hiding throughout and underneath , the babies are tiny too a lot smaller than zoa eating nudis.Other montis are at risk and I've heard of them going after chalices.

If it were me I'd try the manual route but you can clearly see the damage they do so you'll know when it's time to pull it out and qt with weekly dips......I've had to do this and keep the display fallow it sucks but they are fast breeding nasty little buggers lol not a lot of damage at first but once Colonie is taken over loses tissue faster and faster.

Such a nice growth pattern to , I hope it does pull through for you

Nope, it's trashed. I was talking about tips and tricks for kalk paste application.

I recently used the PAR meter to measure the difference between all mitras and Mitras plus T5. There is a larger difference than I anticipated. The mitras alone produced mid 200 PAR 6" under the water surface while adding the T5's boosted that number to ~400+. The biggest difference was a mid to lower depths. I noticed double the PAR with the addition of the T5's. I am using all superblues and the golds have a lot more "pop" now

what overall power % is the fixture at and what about the individual channels to be reading 200?

i ask because my tank seems to prefer (i think) my red channels both turned entirely off and the whites drastically reduced. i keep thinking about toying with the idea of adding some t5 but with an open top there's no way to make that look pleasing.
