Another quick followup – last night I set to ruling out one possible cause – a disrupted nitrogen cycle. In looking at the tank, I honestly had no reason to suspect any actual problems, except of course this recurrent cloudy / infected eye issue occurring with both fish now. One possible cause however, could certainly be the […]

I don’t test my water all that often these days – I’ve long since learned that you can assertain a lot of what is going on through observation, and the basics of pH and Temp are constantly monitored. Still, I do check things once in a while to make sure we’re not too far off […]
Yes, made it a point today to check how things are going in my own “super [fish] bowl”…that is the Ecoxotic cube tank that holds the Lightning Maroon. I’ve been Vodka dosing lately and it certainly seems to be helping the corals show their ideal colors, although the Green and Purple maricultured ORA Gonioporas really […]
It’s been a while since I sat down and checked my water chemistry. The corals are growing for the most part, and growing well. Color still seems to be trouble, and in the last month, algal growth on the glass has picked up the pace. With the pH probe on my Apex routinely starting to […]
Well, there’s a lot of random things to update on, sadly the only thing I really would love to shout about (a spawn) hasn’t happened yet. Meanwhile, a followup on the last pairing trial, the third attempt at a “Female Flip”, pairing a loner white stripe maroon with the massively larger “Labrador” white stripe maroon. […]
We’re seeing ongoing progress in the Lightning Maroon pairing. More digging, more general surface cleaning, but no eggs yet. Rod Buehler of Rod’s Food sent along an extra-special care package from Mama Percula to Mrs. Lightning this weekend…some of her secret recipe new “Breeder’s Blend”, aka. “No Candelight Needed”. Some is getting tested out here, […]
It has been a LONG time since I tested the water on the Lightning Maroon’s tank. The Birdsnest Corals are all growing, some quite rapidly. I already hacked off a dozen+ frags on the “Sour Apple” Seriatopora as it was starting to shade out smaller corals. The pH swings I was experiencing seemed to have […]
Real quickly, I have tons of videos uploading to Youtube but they’re taking all freakin’ day (I shot a lot this weekend). Lots of interesting stuff on the pairing front coming. In the meantime, I’m doing a water test…here’s where we sit: Temp (Neptune) – 79.5F pH (Seachem) – 8.2 pH (Neptune) – 8.25 Alkalinity […]
Short and sweet, after being gone for almost a week, and preparing to transfer in a mate this weekend, I thought I should take a quick snapshot of my water quality. pH – 8.2 Alkalinity – 4.25 meq/L Calcium – 420 ppm Magnesium – 1170 ppm Nitrate – approximately 2.5-5 ppm. I’m continuing to dose […]
