SRC Member Evolutionz Posted July 20, 2013 Author SRC Member Share Posted July 20, 2013 Remember to clean your skimmer guys!! Before cleaning, all i can get is tea color or slightly darker on my MCE 600.. decided to clean the whole unit last week and within a week of skimming i got a nice thick black gooey skimmate. http://s961.photobucket.com/user/fissiden/media/20130719_193534_zps84d97f0e.jpg.html'> Quote EvolutionZ's Floating Reef: (Decommed) EvolutionZ's 4ft shallow Mixed Reef Build : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even my sc1455 dun get that kind of skim mate. Thanks bro, its rated for 700L and my tank's only 260L.. guess thats one of the reason why i have black skimmate.. but the design of the skimmer requires more cleaning. i also tend to skim on the dry side.

Thanks bro. I'm thinking for me i won't dare to ram up to 75 on white. But do you tune down when you aclimatise new coral?

SRC Member Evolutionz Posted July 22, 2013 Author SRC Member Share Posted July 22, 2013 when i first started using razor after changing from maxspect g2 170w to the razor, my max intensity is A:50%B:70%. once or every 2 weeks i will ramp up 5%. Our LEDs, T5 or MH no matter how strong will never be able to be as strong as our sun. So IMO, we can run 100% on both channel with no issue but acclimatization is very important. end of the day i might run A:85% B:100%. As i believe this will improve both color and growth.

I tried the wp25 on else (8000l/hr) and probably due to the narrower wave, it was too strong and im worried my SPS may not be able to take it.. Changed it to W1 (wave mode) at S2 speed and it seems just right. really love the super small size compared to wp40. http://s961.photobucket.com/user/fissiden/media/20130726_213031_zps33bac4c3.jpg.html'> Quote EvolutionZ's Floating Reef: (Decommed) EvolutionZ's 4ft shallow Mixed Reef Build : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
