I pulled the calcium reactor apart last week and gave it a really good clean and the media and thorough wash. Found a leak that had sealed from salt creep so I fixed that up and while I was waiting for that to set I did a couple of 10% water changes to keep the levels stable as I couldn't be bothered manually dosing haha did another 10% yesterday and will probably do another 10 in the next couple of days Just because haha I'm in the mood to clean! I'm also in the process of siphoning all of the sand out of the sump frag tank as it's gross and I want to get some more fragging and growing done and the sand makes it hard to keep it clean! I'm going to get a couple of Zen Reef products for my fragging works. The peppers are doing really well! Much easier to manage than a reef tank haha. My current list of peppers being grown is: - Brain Strain 7 Pot - California Repear - Sugar Rush Peach - Peach Scorpion - Chocolate Scorpion - Jalapeno - Poblano/Ancho - Scotch Bonnet - Bahamian Goat - Count Dracula - Purple UFO - Trinidad Perfume Pepper - Chilli Costa Rica - Brazilian Starfish And I still have about half a dozen I haven't planted haha but as you can see I have zero room left in my little pepper station haha Quote:
At the moment, I'm just going to get a second 3ft SB Reef Lights sBar actinic strip to add in and probably change the Radium to a 400w and get rid of the t5's lol who knows though haha I'll try to take some this week for you

Love those mushrooms, Dom.
Will they go in the display? Your cat looks too cute to say no to, even though s/he probably needs to hear it often!
