Nice job overall...
Sorry to read about your Yellow Tail going MIA
Where did you source the wiring duct or trough for your sump?

Call off the search and rescue, it has been discovered this morning. 😃

Thanks for the info on the duct.
Isn't it amazing how fish can hide in such a controlled environment?
Glad that SAR costs will be kept at a minimum

Day 35.

Just finished testing,

Ammonia : 0 API
Salinity : 1.025 Refractometer : 35.5 Apex
Phosphate : 0 Salifert
Nitrite : 0 Salifert
Nitrate : 2 ppm Salifert
Alk : 6.2 Salifert
pH : 8.11 - 8.22 Apex
Temp : 77.8 - 78.1 Apex

Numbers look great except for Alk, need to start dosing.

Found the Yellow Tail, seems he dug himself a cave under the rocks and never shows himself, lol.

So what's next? Add more fish? Start adding a CuC? What CuC members are recommended? Rich mentioned Trocus snails, am I ready for a cleaner shrimp or other inverts?

Going to hold off on corals until the frag swap. Picked up some Coral Rx and Revive today in preparation. Guess I should get some new clean plugs as well as coral glue.

First w/c coming up next weekend. Not looking forward to that! Trying to keep the glass clean.

Diatoms everywhere! Water starting to cloud as well. Running 300ml ZeoCarb passively.

$20 to the first person who can spot the Damsel!

The product is called Panduit and I got mine from Torbram Electrical Supply in PoCo, but any good electrical supply house should carry it. I even think Home De Pot has something similar.

...and on a lighter note, the yellow tail was spotted this morning alive and well, lol.
