State of the Tank: (cont.) |
|
It may take a day or two but I really do try to answer all of you (provided I actually have an answer) but I appreciate your just stopping by to say 'hi' too. Just thought this needed to be said.
Okay, so let's get to the month's happenings. And because we were just talking about it, I'll start with the equipment. Now, to show you how relatively uneventful things were this month, the biggest news here was that we dialed down the 'back' set of Tunzes to 60% so the carom off the front glass wouldn't be so hard on the Frogspawns and Palyothoas. Pretty darned exciting, right? In my opinion, this hasn't really made much of a difference (if you notice in the tank shot, the Frogspawns in particular still look pretty tight) although maybe it's too early to tell. I don't want to dial the Streams down much more for fear of losing any benefit to the 'SPS' and there seems to be a good deal of benefit to the 'SPS'. So I'm hoping the 'LPS' and polyps can somehow get used to the added flow, as it won't be going away any time soon.
The Korallin Sulfur-Based Biodenitrator still seems to be working well but it sure looks like hell inside the canister...lots of grunge, etc. I can't seem to find to find any information regarding the cleaning of the unit or even if it's supposed to be cleaned at all. I think we're just going to go for it though, well away from the house of course, since I can just imagine what it must smell like in there.
