    Done two 4gal changes in a week... It's just those corals... aerosol or copper, I'd expect reaction/impact on fish or inverts as well. "Retest phosphates, 0 is not good. If still 0, start feeding the fish more. Also, there's a chance the toadstool is secreting toxic compounds into the water...

    Knocking off the dust, after a decade...

    Knocking off the dust, after a decade...

    Extra fan didn't help all that much, and wasn't thrilled with the look nor did the supplemental light seem to help all that much. Stumbled on an AI Prime 16hd for 234 and change, so pulled the trigger on the light, mount and mesh lid. On another note, added some G. Blodgetti & C...
