Sis, looking real good (and real packed)... it's sad to see a tank fully packed actually... no more LFS shopping

Changing of water may not be the long term solution for controlling NO3 effectively in my opinion. And changing 80% is way too extreme, you may want to reconsider that. Perhaps 20% weekly.

Personally, I try not to rely solely on water change to control nutrients reason being... I might get lazier next time, busy at times and I do travel more often towards year end. And water change is both expensive and time consuming.

Perhaps you want to consider introducing a Nitrate Reductor (Denitrator) into the system. A reliable working Denitrator can help maintain NO3 at almost undetectable level at all time.

But the most effective "weapon" of all is a good efficient skimmer. I am confident that your NO3 will be much lesser if you are to run a more efficient/powerful protein skimmer.

Since you can't add much corals to your tank now... perhaps focus on hardware It's a cycle... with better equipments... you can add in more corals!!!

Note: My last sentence was meant to be a joke. It can be true... but too controversial a statement

add more calcium and strongtium sis, ur liferocks lack coraline colour.

That's my special anemone. it likes that area. after try to attach the mirrormany times. so I let it choose the location by itslef. then it never walk anymore (now). :

Nice purple anemone. I might be wrong but i'm afraid the anemone might be artificially dyed.

I initially thought so too... but that Anemone has been with Sis for a couple of weeks now... so I take it as its natural colour

[w3ish3ng]

well, if its dyed, shouldnt the root be purple too? its a yellow root purple tenecles anemone as you can see in the previous picture.
