Well, did a 50 gallon WC on Sat but not sure how much it helped. Ammonia is down to 1.0 but Nitrate and 'trite are basically maxed out on our test kit. Phosphate is almost zero (is that normal) but ammonia has come down so that should be good. Not sure since its been a while since we cycled a tank and that one was short as it was since the rock was fresh.

We have some macro algae starting to grow and the skimming is pulling a lot of junk. I thinking we should have used a bag or 2 of live sand so I seeded some more from the 75 into the sand in the sump. It does look like some stuff is starting to grow in the sand in the DT when you look at the edge.

Anywho, put the lights on and it looks like this
