As always, your tank is just exceptional, Murph. How is that anemone doing for you? Is it causing any issues?

Sheez, between the clams and all the SPS it must be a crazy amount.

thanks everyone
maxalmon... i have no idea how much it uses lol.... but i can tell u its probably alot! id say close to 200+mls a day at least... my reactor runs very fast im doing about 80-90 BPM of CO2 into the first chamber with an effluent rate of about 20ml every 8-10 seconds coming out of the second chamber...
i also dose Kalk in my top off water... 2 table spoons per 5 gallons of RO/DI water... i also dose 1 teaspoon of alk powder almost daily and then another 60ml of Magnesium a day. so as u can see it sucks it up!
thanks dmjordan!
mach03infront thanks its finally growing out its been growing steadily turning into a nice piece
b bauer... thats actually some slimer sps coral thats growing up the back now not a monti but thanks !
lion crazz... the anemone has been doing fine its been rubbin a lil bit of my tri color and a few other things but no major damage as of yet.... the other nite it actually got partially sucked into the strainer of the CL system kinda tearing some tentacles they are healing now though... it is startiing to get a lil large for my likings
thanks jmick
groupergenius lol i wish i really knew the exact number
regina13 thats GSP aka green star polyps a begginer corals that often becomes a nuiscance due to its spreading behaviour mine doesnt grow totally fast but it is spreading all on the glass and from rock to rock adventually ill have to do something about it...

Beautiful Murph!!! Any Advice For Me, I Would Like To Start A Kalk Drip Into My Tank, It Is A 120g With About A 35 Gal Fuge, Was Wondering How Much To Allow In, And How Strong To Mix, Though About Using A 2 Liter Bottle, Any Good Advice Would Be Great!!!!

well dont add anyting until u dose and see what ur tanks levels are at... if u dont have anything demanding calcium or alk than regualr water changes should suffice its only when u get into clams and sps corals mainly that ur calcium and alk need to be monitored more closely
