Thanks everyone! I am running 6 bulb t5 light. 2 coralife actinics, 2 10ks, 1 ati aquablue, and 1 ati purple plus. Marineland 150 skimmer, fluval fx5 canister, changing carbon once a month. I do water changes once a week using coralife or red sea coral pro salt. I have a 50gpd reverse osmosis unit. I am dosing kent coral accel, coral vite, and essential elements. Brightwell aquatics marine snow, pohls coral vitalizer all about once a week. Dts live phyto 3x a week. I have been using a phosphate reactor with biopellets for about 3 mths, but have not noticed a difference and im going to change the biopellets to carbon. I also have a small breeder basket inside the tank that is full of macro algae and caulerpa. I feed frozen 1 cube at night of either mysis,rotifers,cyclops,or reef plankton. I feed flakes once a day. Calcium 490 alk 10 nitrate 0 phospahte 0 salt .026

Your tank is very beautiful!

Just wanted to tell you, be careful putting carbon in your phosphate reactor. I tried to do that and the movement inside the tube crushed the carbon and it was getting into my water column and really irritated the corals. I ended up taking the carbon out of the reactor.

I love your xenia too! Trying to find some pom pom now.

Good luck!
