The dino's all over the tank have lost their strands, but still present on rocks and sandbed. was unable to suck the sandbed after work. Today was another period of darkness until 6 when I turned the lights back on. So 3 days really hurt them. I removed some dead corals that were just another thing for Dino's to cling onto. I'm increasing my halide times from 6-8 hours to better help my Gig gain back some color, I will also be feeding everyday to help it out. Will dose another 5 mL tomorrow morning and take pictures after work. I will dose another 2 mL at 6pm to oxidize more DOC's. Will respond tomorrow with the progress.
I appreciate the updates, keep them coming.
