has anyone had any experiance with B-ionic 2 part?
i was looking into buying that. I have no clue how dosing works though
I use it on my tanks that don't run a Ca reactor.
Before you start dosing, you need to be testing, what are your readings? In a 30G, water changes should be enough to keep levels.

yeah im not overly concerned about my cal and alk dropping. i do a water change every weekish lol( i get lazy). im just asking since im adding a lot of SPS and clams. will those corals be enough to counter my water changes
ATM my cal is 440 and my alk is 10. i tested them last night
anyways i was snooping through some pics and i found some really funny pictures of my first ever salt water tank
as you can see i had a single K1, stock lighting , and a nano protein skimmer.
lol i did have a blast with it though.
oh i did find my very frist coral i had and still have ill show you the growth
apparently i thought having the picture SUPER blue was cool. lol
here it is in my tank now with 4 heads.

hey guys, i was looking into getting a vortech pump
i was looking at the MP10, though im kinda drawn to the MP40.
do you guys think the MP40 would be overkill? and would the MP10 be fine as a single Power head
im a big fan of the vortech but the price kills me lol. i would rather go with koralias but hey if you want the vortech go for it bro
as for which model im sure henry(spanko) can help you. he has a MP10 on his nano i think
and its doing an amazing job i can say that.

thanks , yeah its a really good pic.
the nems a green bubble tip anemone. though a little bleached (it was under 400watt MH at the LFS)
i love my clowns. probably the cutest things in the world. the smallest one trys so hard to host in the nem. But the larger one doesnt like it so it settles for the side against the rock.
i was thinking about buying it a small Rose bubble tip

My clowns did the same thing...don't get another anemone. The little one will eventually get the females permission to join her. he won't get to wallow as much, but he will be allowed, from there they will share it. Time is all it takes..be happy I had clowns for years before they finally decided to host. I have found it best to let the ocean critters settle their own territory battles.
Your tank look great by the way...and I really I like the way you did your rocks.

Hey guys, its been a while sine ive posted.
i took some pics of some new corals i bought.
i also picked up an MP10. Personally i dont think its worth the $300 i paid but oh well its still cool.
anyways here are some pics
this is by far my favorite coral in my tank. its lime green with a hint of pink at the tips
This acro has grown so much since i bought my new lights. though the corals colour has changed colour from deep green to a yellowish. hopefully it will get a better colour back !
anyways hope you like it!
