[newmarine]

Just did a major rescape and change the sand. Also upgraded some equipment.

1. Change from beckett skimmer to aquamedic shorty II

2. Added Mulwakee PH Controller

Have not move my coral and livestock back to the tank.

Hi newmarine,

No, I did not use any epoxy. Am thinking whether should use or not. Not much of pic now as I am running in the tank, trying to increase the photoperiod. Now only running 2 x 80W T5 ATI Aquablue Special light for 1 hour per day. Intend to increase to 2 hours from today till Sun.

Thanks Bro. Keeping mostly LPS but may try few SPS when tank is more mature.

Now trying to get the coraline algae to grow on the rocks. Started to switch on my T5 4 tubes lights. Now only have 2 x 80 ATI Blue Plus for 1hour daily.

Intend to increase to 2 hours and hopefully by next week 4 hours daily. Once reach that will on my 2 x 80w ATI Aquablue special for 1 hour daily for 2 days then upto 2 hours.

Wanted to be real careful so that algae don't bloom.

Appreciate comment or advice on my thought for photoperiod.
